Review on Sheaffer Viewpoint Calligraphy Pen by Carol Miller

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good for the price and for a beginner calligrapher, but could be better

A decent starter set with pens and nibs that beginners will forgive. The nibs are of course glued to the body of the holder so they can't be swapped out, and the kit includes a variety of colors and extra ink cartridges for more writing. The downside is that I get medium-wide grip leaks almost every day, no matter how careful I am. In addition, the cost of plastic and almost disposable pens is a bit high, while professional calligrapher pens are cheaper. The book, on the other hand, is a useful little guide to getting you started with a few example fonts for beginners.

Pros
  • Writing and school supplies
Cons
  • A few little things
