Brause Calligraphy Thin Nib Holder Nib #511

This is a steel ferrule type mapping nib holder that is meant for Brause Mapping nibs that are not cylindrical. This holder will not accept round or cylindrical nibs like Crowquills or Maru nibs. This is a fact that should be clearly mentioned in the description along with a proper image of the ferrule.Other than that:The holder is plastic and hollow, as holder are. It's thinner than regular nib-holders. That allows for finer control with a mapping nib. It's light and tapered and the length of a regular pen. Not too long.The ferrule can be removed from the barrel completely to be cleaned or inverted to store with the nib facing in. It's also not much work to loosen or tighten with use.The free nib is a Brause 511 mapping nib. Haven't used it long enough so I can only say, it holds a moderate amount of ink and is a fairly soft nib. Can produce very fine to medium lines, but requires control and practice to make smooth lines.That's enough for a nib-holder review, I think.

Pessimo oggetto, il pennino non si incastra sulla cannuccia

It is pretty basic, but that is what I wanted. The plastic holder is light so my hand doesn't get worn out. The nib is pretty good. It holds ink well and draws a nice clean line. No blotting or skipping at all in spite of the fact it has been a while since I used a dip pen. I haven't used it long, and if my opinion changes I will update, but I expect to like it even more as I get used to it.

Wunderbar...sehr geeignet für Anfänger bin sehr zufrieden

Ordered the wrong item these worked ok just cheap but they were cheap lol
