Calligraphy Pen Holders
One of the most important tools in calligraphy is the Calligraphy Pen Holder. Straight or oblique, simple or dual, black or colored – this remains your choice and it’s on you to test several and see which one works best for you.
Together with purchasing a Pen Holder, there are NO instructions for using the pen holder. If you are not yet familiar with tools used for pointed pen calligraphy, we recommend our Calligraphy Kit (suitable for beginners, that has a set of instructions for you to get started) or the Online Course (where you learn all about tools, posture, position, letters construction, connecting, spacing and much more).
Nib is not included.
All pen holders have a nib holding mechanism. For the straight pen holders, you can find ring groove mechanism or ferrule mechanism to hold the nib. A straight pen holder is suitable both for right handed calligraphers and lefties as well.
Some oblique pen holders available are dual, so you can use them like this, or you can remove the flange and use them as straight pen holders. Usual recommended obliques for lefties are the ones with the flange on the right side. Still, the dual obliques can be used by lefties if adjusting the paper position or if using as straight pen holder.
Welcome to your calligraphy journey! Enjoy the process, allow yourself to take your time and enhance your script one day at a time. Be kind to yourself, have patience and remember that practice makes perfect!
Happy creating and keep an eye on us!
