How to use

Unpack the pen holder and select your desired nib. Ensure the nib is clean and dry. You will also need Speedball India ink or a similar calligraphy ink. — Prepare Your Tools
Dip the nib into the ink, submerging only the reservoir part. Avoid getting ink on the holder. A light dip is usually sufficient for several strokes. — Ink the Nib
Hold the pen at a comfortable angle, typically around 45 degrees for italic lettering. Apply gentle, consistent pressure to create lines of varying thickness as you write or draw. — Letter and Draw
After use, immediately rinse the nib thoroughly with water to remove all ink. Dry the nib completely with a soft cloth before storing it back in the holder or its original packaging. — Clean and Store
