The Gillot 170 is a moderately flexible nib that is much finer than the Gillott 303 or 404. Although it is less flexible than the 303, it produces comparable hairlines and is much smoother, making it a better choice for use on textured papers. Also capable of creating wide swells with a little pressure and a controlled hand.
Great for small to medium Copperplate, suitable for Spencerian. This nib is ideal for intermediate or advanced level calligraphers and is not recommended for beginners.
This nib is included in our Copperplate Sampler
Measurements: 21mm long x 5mm wide

Gillott 170 nib.
This nib, although requiring a light touch, produces wonderful controlled line variations. A smooth nib to draw and write with.

Gillott 170 nib
OMG! I LOVE this nib!! The fineness of line is exquisite and the swells beautiful. It is great for almost any fine calligraphy where you need variation in lines. I have found it absolutely perfect for Spencerian and Ornamental scripts.
