It would have a nice big nib (ie. not the smallish one found on the Charleston) and would be available in both clear solid colours, including orange (yes, I love orange!). It would be fairly light in the hand (like its predecessor) but not unsubstantial. <br />I would price it at ~$150 to $250 and it would have a steel nib option as well as a 14K gold nib option. The people that might find this design of interest would be vintage fountain pen aficionados and people who like pens that are not overly heavy. Not sure what name I'd give it, though---seems like all the good pen model names are taken!Majanoreply@blogger.com
