Inspired by vintage flat top pens of yesteryear, the Milano is machined from beautiful Acrylic and Ebonite material. Ebonite is a natural hard rubber, expect to see slight variation from the pictures (no two pens are alike!). Osprey Pens Milano Measurements:
This listing allows you to choose a steel clip or a gold clip to be outfitted with your Milano. Note that the clip may come with a different imprint than what is shown in the pictures.
One Pen, Many Nibs: Choice of Additional Nibs
Keeping in line with the Osprey philosophy of interchangeable nib units, a wide variety of nib units are offered below that will work with this pen. Click on the hyperlinked choices to learn more about the nibs.
All ultra-flex and Zebra G nib units come with ebonite feed. Size 5.5 Ultra-flex, Zebra G Flex and Titanium Ultra-flex are non-cartridge type, meaning they do not take any prefilled ink cartridges or international converters. They are made to work with custom Osprey converters. Size 6 Ultra-flex nib units (second generation) on the other hand, take both, cartridge or converter, which means you can use prefilled ink cartridges or use bottled ink.
If you choose #5.5Ultra-flex or Zebra G flex nib-units/assemblies, be sure to add a nib-block kit , if you don't already have one. You can download a maintenance guide that helps in easy disassembly and assembly, when the feeds get clogged over time with use. The nib block does not accommodate size 6 nibs, you will instead need to use the grip provided in the kit for disassembly and assembly.
I added this pen to my Osprey collection. It’s elegant and functional. It’s nice to have the option of exchanging nib units. The one reason I’m giving it a four star review is because upon posting the cap, the clip doesn’t align with the nib after screwing the cap all the way. I tried starting different ways to cap it to no avail. It’s true you don’t have to cap the pen as it’s long enough to write with it uncapped, but it would’ve been easier if they align with each other.
The thickness and the balance of the pen shaft are just right, and the feeling when I hold it is also very good. I chose Ultra Flex Nib, but it is not too soft and has a certain stiffness, and the pen point also opens well. It is the best one for me.
I’m always drawn to red/burgundy pens, but this one is so unique. I love the stylish Art Deco clip and the fact that Osprey gives you the choice of yellow or silver accents on all their pens. They also let you add a flex nib to your choice of standard nibs at a really attractive price. The abundance of nib options is such a great feature of Osprey pens. Another is that you can screw the cap on the bottom of the pen if you choose to mount the cap. I loved this pen so much I bought a blue one as a gift. Love it!
