Who It's For & Who Should Skip

This set is perfect for art students, hobbyists, calligraphers, and professional artists in India seeking authentic, high-quality dip pens for detailed work. It's ideal for those who appreciate the control and versatility of traditional dip pen techniques. However, if you require a disposable pen or a pen with a pre-filled ink cartridge, this dip pen set may not suit your needs. Consider a fountain pen or gel pen for simpler, everyday writing tasks.

How to use

Choose a pen nib from the assortment (e.g., Crow Quill for fine lines, 512 for broader strokes) and securely insert it into one of the provided pen holders. Ensure the nib is firmly seated for stable drawing. — Select Pen Nib and Holder
Gently dip the nib into your chosen ink (water-based ink is included). Avoid submerging the entire nib; just the tip needs to be coated. Wipe off excess ink to prevent blobs. — Dip into Ink
Apply light pressure to the nib against your paper to create lines. Vary pressure to achieve different line weights. For lettering and cross-hatching, use controlled strokes to build up tone and form. — Draw and Letter
After use, rinse the nib thoroughly with water and dry it completely to prevent rust and ink buildup. Store the nibs and holders in their original packaging to keep them protected and organized. — Clean and Store
