Description

The A-Series nib is ideal for any Gothic or Monoline lettering style that has lines of uniform width with a squared finish. Suitable for use with any straight/classic style penholder.

The B-Series is perfect for creating a variety of monoline lettering, drawn letters (e.g. Versals) and “built-up” letters, such as the Double Stroke Poster Roman.  Suitable for use with any straight/classic style penholder.

The C-Series design or left-handed C-Series variation are suitable for use with any straight/classic style penholder.

#22B Extra Fine:  Featuring a bronze finish and medium stiffness, the #22B is suitable for Copperplate and Spencerian scripts, ornamental work and ruling.

#56 Standard School: Possessing a stiff action, this nib is steady and durable, making it a perfect tool for beginners.

#99 Drawing: This extremely flexible nib features an extra-fine point and is capable of producing thick swells with minimal pressure.  Perfect for artists with a light touch working on smooth papers.

The #22B, #56 and #99 nibs may all be used with either a straight/classic style or oblique penholder.

#100 Artist:  Perfect for writing at x-heights of 1/8” or less, this highly flexible and delicate nib is best for use on smooth papers. May be used with either a straight/classic style or oblique penholder.

    I ordered the #22B extra fine and I’m absolutely in love! It is such a versatile nib. I am easily able to go from thick to thin lines, which makes controlling line weight a breeze. Not only is it amazing for inking it’s also able to flawlessly hatch. I am a very happy customer and would 10/10 recommend it.
