Review on Transform Your Writing With AIVN'S Feather Quill Calligraphy Set - Includes 12 Nibs For Perfect Strokes by Jason Przystup

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quill looks great and will make a fantastic present for my wife.

Edited: Changed to 5 star. Seller contacted me and offered to send the extra nibs. Probably won't get them before Christmas, but nice to know AIVN is customer focused and willing to help problems.I will update after my wife uses, as this is part of her Christmas present. Overall, I like the set and would recommend others purchase, especially as a gift as it looks beautiful; but it only came with 6 nibs. Not the 17 that the product title said.PROS:It looks great, and the quill and holder are a fantastic desk item even if she doesn't use for calligraphy. The box is solid, and even would have room to hold more nibs and ink if she wanted more. I can't overstate how pretty the quill looks. It has some weight to it. The feathers don't appear to be real, but that just means they don't separate and get as dingy looking as real ones can. It has a nice weight to it, and holding it is fairly nice, as there are plenty of grooves on the base.CONS: I only received the set with 6 nibs. Five in the box, and one on the pen. The product title said 17 nibs. I'm not sure what the difference is. The nibs are slightly hard to pull out of pen, and could make a mess if you don't have a set of pliers/ tweezers handy when they have ink on them. They also appear to be flimsy, and could bend if too much pressure is placed on them.

Pros
  • 100% HANDCRAFTED: AIVN artist grade caligrapher pen is made by hand with quill pen and stainless steel nib, pioneering new writing tools and high technology. The traditional crafted product.
Cons
  • The set may not be suitable for use in calligraphy competitions
