Review of Cross C-Series Monaco Blue
To a lot of writers using a fountain pen constitutes one of the major delights of life. Once relegated to public school classrooms and the flannel jacket pockets of school teachers, fountain pens nowadays are basking in a new beginning amongst those who are looking for a change from the dismall obscurity of the ballpoint pen and computer keyboard.
I’ve bought some Cross writing instruments and I’ve been using these great pens for since I remember. Just saying Cross tells you about superiority and reputation. This particular one, the Cross C-Series Monaco Blue, exceeds in form and function all the others in my collection. This has fabulous grip, the ink flows like a dream on the paper, and the weight of the pen feels just right. Compared to others this is very modern and has just the right balance for writing. If you enjoy Cross merchandise you will enjoy this one.
When you are unsure about a different but practical present for a friend, you might look at gifting them a fountain pen. Anybody who enjoys writing and appreciates the nicer things in life, then a fountain pen may well prove to be the perfect gift.
