Description of Calligraphy Set Holder Oblique Speedball 2 Pointy Nibs Zebra G and Blue Pumpkin

Set for calligraphy with a sharp pen, 3 items. As part of the set you will find the original oblique black Oblique holder from the American brand Speedball, the sharp Japanese Zebra G nib and the English Plue Pumpkin nib. The set is ideal for cursive writing: English cursive, Spencerian, modern calligraphy. Oblique holder original - fits most standard nibs and has a removable flange with a flat seat. Compared to the Nikko G and Tachikawa G, the sharp nib of the Zebra G is slightly softer, resulting in a finer hairline and better writing control. Ideal for Spencerian and Copperplate styles, drawing. Suitable for both beginners and professionals. The Blue Pumpkin sharp nib (Hiro Leonardt 40) is one of the most popular nibs for Copperplate, calligraphy and lettering. Gives a thin hairline, suitable for complex surfaces. Very plastic and soft feather. Capable of holding a lot of ink. New nibs must be degreased with alcohol, as they are initially covered with an oily layer, which will cause the ink to roll off the pen. After use, wash the pen with soap and water and wipe dry. Store feathers in a separate box and transport with care avoiding bending of the prongs.

My impression of the purchase is good, buy it.

There are no shortcomings, to be honest - I expected more from the holder: it turned out to be a simple Chinese one. There are no complaints about the feathers - everything is fine. In this regard, of course, the price is too high

Pros
  • Nice branded feathers
Cons
  • Lack of branded packaging
