Glass Dip Pen / Sound of the Tide

★ The tiny bubbles give the pen body a sparkling, dappled appearance. One design, one pen. Each pen is entirely unique, bearing subtle patterns from the handcrafted firing process. (For example, the pen body and tip may not be perfectly straight, the surface might not be completely smooth, some textured areas may feel raised or recessed to the touch, and the ink channels might not be perfectly equidistant.) Every glass pen possesses its own character—its warmth, how it feels in your hand, its writing sensation, the flow of its patterns, its length… all are distinct. 【How to Use】 Dip the nib into ink, covering about 1/3 to over half of it, then begin writing. (Avoid striking the bottom of the ink bottle.) The writing feel and line thickness will vary depending on the angle at which you hold each pen. Some angles may not allow for smooth writing, while others will. Experiment to find the angle that suits your writing style. After writing, simply rinse the nib with clean water. If residual ink remains in the crevices after rinsing, you can gently brush it with a soft-bristled toothbrush. Allow it to air dry before storing. Please handle with care to avoid dropping. ★ Initial use may involve some normal paper scratching. ★ Do not remove the protective cap by pulling it straight horizontally, as this can damage the nib. Instead, twist the cap in opposite directions to remove it. ★ Each pen features unique, naturally occurring bubbles or bubble patterns. ★ Please use fountain pen ink. ★ For calligraphy practice, consider using a hard-brush calligraphy copybook. ★ Includes a small ink bottle (5ml) + storage box. (★ Due to international shipping restrictions on liquids, an ink rest will be provided instead of ink for international orders.) ★ Repairs for damage will incur a fee based on the extent of the damage. (Complete shattering cannot be repaired.) ★ We kindly ask that you refrain from making assumptions about the product.
