Review GILLIO fountain pen Lineo - by our customer Maria Spinola

I am a fan of nice writing instruments. Therefore I was looking at the GILLIO site for a sleek and elegant fountain pen. I did not have to look very long. I saw the Lineo and this seems to be the type of pen that I am looking for. It looks slim and elegant and it will go with all my planners and traveler’s notebook.

So after I placed the order, I received the pen very fast (I think 2 days). It was very nicely packed. When opening the package you can smell the leather. And no, I did not order any leather product…  

When I took the pen in my hands it felt very light. It is made of metal and looks amazing. The color of the pen is black, with some silver details. The tip is silver with gold with some decorations. I was not sure if the tip is medium or small. So let’s try the pen. The pen comes with one ink cartage, color blue. The ink cartage can be bought at GILLIO, but you can find them also in your local stationary shops.

After loading the pen with the ink, I could immediately write with it. This is not always the case with a fountain pen. And it writes very smooth. The tip is medium. I am used to write with a fine tip, but I love this tip. It glades on the paper so smoothly, not scratchy as sometimes a fine tip writes. 

Because the pen is very slim, it fits in every pen loop, even in the tights one. I have tested this on a few of my non-elastic site pen loops. 

I can summarize by saying that this is a very nice pen for the price. I am glad that I bought it. I use this almost every day. 

And now some pictures of the pen:
