This glass dip pen set offers a unique and colorful way to practice calligraphy or sign documents. The pens are hand-blown from high-borosilicate glass, a material known for its durability and resistance to temperature changes. The spiral design of the nib acts as a reservoir, holding enough ink to write 40 to 60 words with a single dip. This makes it a very efficient tool for short tasks like writing holiday cards or signing guest books.
The set includes 12 different inks that contain gold-powder "shimmer." Because the gold flecks are heavier than the ink, a simple practical tip is to rotate the bottle horizontally before opening to get the shimmer evenly mixed. Since the pens are made of glass, they are very easy to clean—just rinse them in water and you can switch between colors instantly without any leftover ink from the previous color.
The non-porous glass construction makes these pens a practical choice for those who want to switch between many different ink colors quickly and easily.
If you're looking for a gift that includes more traditional nib styles along with decorative elements, consider the PDCTACST 16-piece set.
