Desiderata Soubriquet

This pen was kindly lent to me by Maestro Pierre Miller of Desiderata Pens – thank you!

For the record, this pen has a nib unit with a breather tube to optimize its filling system. In the video, the ink level had dipped below the breather tube, hence the dryness: as soon as I refilled it, it wrote wetly and it has continued to do so.
