Description
Materials
Hand-made calligraphic pen. A perfect combination of metal and wood or resin. I use brass, copper, aluminum or stainless steel for my projects. When I use wood, it is usually a rosewood. In the case of resins, they are self-made materials.
Balance
When designing my pens, I devoted a lot of attention to make them not only beautiful. It was also extremely important that they were very well balanced and comfortable in the hand.
I am pleased to admit that it has succeeded and this is not just my opinion. Very many experienced calligraphers have expressed admiration for a very good weight distribution in my pennies.
Divine proportion – FiboPen
When designing my penny, I used divisions known for ages. The golden division, because of it, was an important assumption during the creation of FiboPens.
The name FiboPen comes from the Fibbonate String. This sequence expresses the natural ratio of the next one to its predecessor. This is also the case with FiboPens. The ratio of the metal part to its body reflects the idea of divine division.
DragonflyPen
In the case of straight pen holders, which I named Dragonflies, we can say about almost 100% matching the weight and convenience to the needs of users. The name Dragonfly comes from the opinion of one of the buyers, who said that the pen is like a dragonfly: it seems to be heavy, and in fact it is agile, slender and noble.
This particular pen was made of white resin.
Notice
In all my oblique pens, the flange to which the nibs are attached is permanently attached to the pen and it is not possible to remove this element. Forcibly removing the element damages the pen. Flange is most often prepared for G nibs, e.g. Nikko G, but Hunt 101, Leonardt Principal will be suitable. Of course, you can write in the notes to the order that you want your flange to be compatible with other nibs.
Perhaps you also want a bullock flange – then please contact me, this type of solution will increase the price of the pen by about 5 Euro.
