Time to be fancy. – GC Quill Writing Calligraphy Pen Set Writing Case 100% Handcrafted.

Standard

calligraphy-set-1

Calligraphy is such a beautiful art form. There is something so elegant about a piece written in calligraphy. Some people have such an amazing talent for it. From scriptures to gift tags, it is always so beautiful to look at. I am so excited about this set. I had a simple one, years ago when I was very young. This set is absolutely perfect for anyone getting into calligraphy. It has everything needed to get started. In this set you get: 5 different inks to choose from, 1 ink bottle stand with ink holder, 6 nibs (writing tips), and 1 calligraphy pen. Since this set was hand crafted, and made alongside the companies that make professional pens, you can rest assured this pen will work the way it should.  You just need to provide paper, and an eagerness to learn. After a quick search online, I found so many free templates to begin your calligraphy lessons with. So, you do not have to wing it, no worries. The pen is well balanced, and the different tips are nice and smooth to work with. If you are new, like me, to this, make sure you are in an area, where no one will knock your bottle of ink over. I knocked my well over, lol. It’s a new experience to get used too.

The ink included is pretty nice to deal with as well. It does not have a pungent odor to it all. I have asthma and allergies, and it doesn’t bother me one bit. No animal products were used in these inks. They are “non-toxic soluble dyes and pigments suspended in acrylic shellac”. This tips are supposed to last awhile. They are made out of stainless steel and are “tipped with iridium alloy”, to keep rolling smoothly for years. The handcrafted pen is so pretty, and made out of a pretty Birch wood. I am new to this set, but I am believing the hype. It is easy to hold and use. It’s a fun experience. This pen is nicer than the one I had many years ago, and that does make a difference. I love having the different heads to really be able to try the different styles with, as well as the different ink colors. It’s the perfect beginners’ for me, and I think it would make a great gift.

I received this for free. I was in no way obligated to leave my unbiased and honest review. – GC Quill Writing Calligraphy Pen Set Writing Case 100% Handcrafted – 5 Bottle Ink – Best Calligraphy DIp Pen For Kids and Beginners – 100% Quality Guarantee

Archival ink! – Boshi’s Black Office Pens.

Standard

We go through a lot of pens in our home. From anywhere from crossword puzzles, to homeschooling, to work. Getting them in larger quantities is key, but sometimes, you just don’t get a quality pen that way. We are really happy with this set. They write very smoothly, and are comfortable to hold and write with. You will get 12 pens in your box. They are black ink gel pens. I was able to write with them, and then run my finger over the words I had just written, with no smudging at all. That actually really surprised me. These are click button pens. Just press the top of the pen in to both begin and stop writing with the pen. These are also refillable ink pens too. The pocket clip is plastic, but it is a pretty tight pocket clip nonetheless. The center of the pen is clear, so you can actually see how much ink you have left. When you first get these pens, you will need to remove a little red plastic cap off the tips of the pens. This was in place to protect them in shipment. It just pops right off. The pen may be plastic, but the tip is made out of stainless steel. It is durable and well made. The lower part of the pen, where you hold it, has a rubber grip on it. This makes it very comfortable to write with. They are currently priced at $13.99 with free prime shipping. That makes it only $1.17 a pen, plus tax. A lot cheaper this way, over buying a pack of two gel pens at the local store. This way you don’t run out as fast either. They state they use archival quality ink. It is acid free, and both waterproof and fade resistant. You can use this to document your family tree, or your precious scrap book memories.
