Questions & Answers
The paper made for China and Japan is of exceptional quality. Anything that helps fountain pens is a good thing. To begin, I recommend Midori MD, generic laser printer paper, and Daiso paper; you'll have a lot of fun trying things out. The reason for fountain pen paper is that it has a combination of bleed through and resisting absorption, resulting in rich color and the perfect balance of shimmer and absorption. These inks, however, should not be used with a fountain pen. They aren't the right combination for that. br>br>As a side note, as long as you're okay with feathering, you can use almost any paper. The strange fuzziness of the lines can be used as a creative tool. I hope this has been of assistance.

This is a beautiful collection. The palette is vibrant. a fluid flow I'd never used a pen like this before, so I had no idea what to expect, but wow, I'm blown away! That's a lovely pen you've got there. Someone mentioned the "well" being shaky, so I looked into it. Well, I'm hoping they're not using it for ink because it's for cleaning the nib with water. The standing cleaning tub is large enough to hold enough water to prevent it from tipping over. This is a work of fine art. a set of writing instruments I'd look for it on a nice desk in a quiet corner of the house, near a window or a fireplace, rather than next to the phone book on the kitchen table. The set is more for fun than for practicality. I hope you find this suggestion useful. As a result, I'll add this: The set does exactly what it says on the tin. a thing of beauty As a gift or a treat for oneself, the form and function work well together. I took a picture of something that was supposed to be a review, but it won't let me upload it right now. I'll get it up as soon as I can.
I have a collection of pens and quills that I use to make drawings. This pen has a larger capacity for ink and lasts longer than the rest. Like the other pens, it does not drip or have a sudden explosion of running ink. This indicates that the design is free of blobs. You don't even need to tap or wipe the side of the jar before using it, as you would with other pens. The line is razor-sharp and razor-thin. It is, however, simple to fill in a solid area by brushing back and forth. My only concern is that I have a bad habit of dropping things and am afraid of breaking it. But, so far, I've managed to remain cautious. br>br>The holder/water dipper is very thin and lovely. It's elegant, but it's also easily broken. It's lovely and functional, but I don't use it much. Because the pen is so simple to clean, I find it far too convenient to stand up and walk to the sink to rinse off the ink. So the holder will most likely end up on my shelf, where it will serve as a display for the glass pen when I am not using it. br>br>Although the ink is thin, the colors are vibrant. I didn't expect high-end ink because a high-quality ink set can cost anywhere between $50 and $60. I was primarily interested in the pen and holder. If you want a high-quality ink set, buy it separately from the pen. This set is useful for learning how to use a pen, getting craft ideas, and learning new skills, but it is far too thin for professional art work.
It's my first dip pen, and I'm enjoying it. I only get about one or two lines before I have to dip again, but it's a lot of fun to write with. I'm not sure how it compares to other dip pens, but it appears to be adequate for a first pen.
br>br>It's easy to write on, and the ink stays put. br>br>Highly recommended; the stand is not particularly sturdy, but it does the job; however, use caution.
The pen's grip and the presentation box are both appealing to me. So far, everything else has been mediocre at best. The inks are runny and under-developed. When they don't separate into two colors on the page, they become pigmented and form a faded line. The fact that each ink contains a pinch of gold glitter micro dust was not mentioned anywhere in the description, which is probably for the best because the inks are all far too thin to keep the micro dust suspended long enough to open a bottle, pop the cork, and dip the nib. br>The holder is unbalanced, with walls as thin as a microscope slide. br>The nib's tip was badly deburred, with an angled point on one side and an unavoidable scratchy gritty spot on the other. br>The set that arrived at my door was unusable straight out of the box.
Unfortunately, it appears to be quite fragile, as the tip of the pen was broken off when it arrived, so it didn't work properly. However, it is a very nice set. We'll see how well the replacement works, and I'll keep you updated once I get it.
It's all right with the pen. But I knew I wasn't going to like it when I bought it. I needed ink and a holder, so I bought them both. I really like the inks because they're bright and don't bleed. On the other hand, the holder is flimsy and light. I'm going to get a new one from a local glass blower.
I've previously used a glass dip pen, and they're very nice and functional. This one is not good, despite the fact that it works; the tip is rough and makes a horrible scratching noise when used. I was a bit let down. The inks are of good quality and come in a variety of attractive colors. br>I realize the tip was broken, which is why there was a scratching noise.
