Aurora Il Viaggio Segreto in Italia Volterra Fountain Pen Goccia CF Nib

Goccia CF nib, completely new to me. Even the architect nib is new to me. Thanks, this video helped me.

I have the CE, Gocci, nib… I love the precision Aurora executes in crafting what is an exceptional writing experience. The straight on ability to have such line variation at just a change in writing angle, the very repeatable aspect of this, is the allure for me. Flexing/flex nib and those possessed of a bit of bounce are my jam, and are great to get really creative with flourishes, serifs, extenders, and such… but to just repeat this without having the practiced technique too often required of flex nibs is the charm of the “Chinese” grind (i.e. CE, Gocci). And any upcharge is a no-brainer for the quality Aurora puts into its nib making.

I like your handwriting very much.

I own this Volterra - with a medium nib - and the Aurora 88 is one of my favorite pens. Your nib seems to write dreamlike. 🤩 The Aurora 88 seems to be a small pen, but uncapped it’s longer than the Montblanc 146. BTW, the Aurora Volterra ink is sepia, very matching. 😉 But I like your choice of Ink too. And your handwriting is magic, as always! ✨

The only architect grind pen I have is a vintage pen from the 1920's that would have been made that way as a Bat mitzvah present for the original owner. I really love it, and would be interested in trying a modern architect nib.

It was great meeting you at the Philadelphia Pen Show last week. Looking forward to your future videos. Wonderful resin. The nib performs well. I am guessing the CF means Cursive (Italic) Fine.

The Montblanc Royal Blue ink works well with this fountain pen. The thicker lines on the horizontal strokes are lovely and give interesting flair to how the nib performs. Will any fountain pen companies create an Azizah nib in the future? Thank you for your video presentation. Take care.

I sort of risked getting a goccia nib on my Trilobiti after a little research because at first glance it resembled a zoom nib which was uncomfortable for me. The goccia is far easier to use AND more versatile. Reverse writing should give you a good extra or ultra extra fine depending on the nib size. Best of all, it’s an anti sweet spot nib. You can get even more variation by tilting the nib to one side or the other. I truely love mine unlike the zoom which I wound up getting made into a cursive italic.

*What are the dimensions please?*

I love Aurora pens, but I do think that they are geared more towards women than men.
