What are the parts of a fountain pen?

by Damon Kostidis on Feb 10, 2023

The parts of a fountain pen are:

1. Reservoir: This is the chamber that holds the ink. It can be refillable or disposable.

2. Feed: This is a tube that connects the reservoir to the nib.

3. Nib: This is the metal or plastic point of the pen that has several small channels that allow the ink to flow onto the paper.

4. Tines: These are the two metal points that protrude from the nib.

5. Cap: This is the piece that covers the nib when not in use.
