Review on Daveliou Calligraphy Pen Set Professional by Lori Aguirre

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A fantastic set for all calligraphers

First of all, the presentation is elegant and inspirational. When you open the magnet box, you get a feeling of enlightenment. I couldn't wait to get started! In addition, this set is small and lightweight, making it easy to carry. As soon as I opened the box, I noticed the glass handle, which is reminiscent of hand-blown glass handles from Italy. I recommend starting with a lighter wooden handle. With a firm, trained hand, you'll find it easier to switch to a glass handle. With the weight of a glass pen, you want to be sure of your strokes, it takes a while to get used to it, but it's wonderful. It fits perfectly in your hand. A small calligraphy instruction booklet was a good reminder. Many people may wish to purchase an additional book on the subject. The nibs are of a very high quality, allowing the ink to flow out of them smoothly. I had no ink buildup or clogging. Very good control. A variety of sizes and styles (cursive and specialty nibs) offer a wide range of artistic expression. The ink included in the set was some of the lightest I've ever used. They mix well too. I managed to mix a beautiful shade of lavender. A nice warm brown would be a great complement to the colors shown. Whether you're using pencil lines on paper or a whiteboard, the Nag eraser won't disturb the ink or change color as you erase. All pens and tips are easy to clean with no stains or marks. I appreciate the little elastic bands that hold each pen and tip in place when you put them back in the box.
