Review on 17-Piece Calligraphy Set With Pens, Inks, Nibs, Pen Holder And Introduction Booklet For Beginners - AIVN by Corby Muin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice packaging but no real instruction included or on product listing.

I almost was going to review this item poorly, but eventually I started to figure out how to better use the product. The nibs are difficult to figure out If you have only worked with cartridge or refillable pen types previously. (including fountain & calligraphy pens) There is not great instruction on how to properly dip the nibs into ink, or how to properly switch each nib in/out of wooden pen. Careful if you have ink on nib & place into the holder to keep the pen upwrite. there is a hole on the bottom & the ink will drip through onto your expensive table if you do not have the wooden pen holder on top of any protected surface. Hopefully I can find additional sources to learn to use better. so far not so much luck. A positive, the package comes as pictured.

Pros
  • For all skill levels.
Cons
  • The set may be too heavy to carry around easily
