Pens made for people who love to draw, letter and sketch
. . and create works of art for others to enjoy
. . and build a tool set that works
Use any any ink or paint - you can't plug up our Classic pens because nothing will stick to them
. . and now for reasons to buy our pens
Every Classic pen is made from a solid rod of POM. Might seem like a small thing, but it’s the bigest advantage of our pens - nothing sticks to it. POM is expensive, which is why most pen companies don’t use it.
. . because it gets plugged with dried ink. If you leave your Classic pen untouched for half a year, field strip the pen in 10 seconds, flush the insides, refill the pen, and you’re back in business. We created our pens to use India ink.
Use a wide range of popular nibs to draw the line you want - Manga G, Hunt, Brause Rose. Principal, Gillott 303, crowquills, our own Sketch and Music nibs. Slip the nibs in and out.
We provide a variety of feeds with a range of flow rates that work with different inks and paints. Again - our pens are modular - slip feeds in and out.
Ink flow is the result of many forces except in our Classic Pump Pens. If you want a stronger flow, press the button pump on the side - you get what you press, from a drop to a gush.
Use new dye-based inks that are colorful and lightfast. Many artists have learned to enjoy new ink concoctions that are lightfast and permanent.
Calligraphers enjoy our pens because we support a wide range of pointed and broad edge nibs including the Brause Bandzug and Rose, Manga G, and Mitchell Roundhand to list a few.
We use the latest software applications, including solid modeling and parametric design. We match the right technology best suited for the product and design.
. . to resurrect drawing tools that used to be very popular. We produce nibs that emulate both feather quill nibs and reed pens used by the masters. Drawing with our quill nibs is like painting with a pen.
Answers to FAQs
That all depends on where you are. We ship most orders within 24 hours. Orders within the US usually take one to three days. Orders to Canada and Mexico take longer, perhaps a week. Orders to Europe and Asia can take from five days to two weeks depending on the reliability of your local post office.
You can use all inks and most paints in our metal nib pens and anything that flows in our Quill Nib pens. If you use think inks - what are called "fountain pen inks" - the flow might be too fast. In that case, you can throttle back the flow with restrictors or slow flow feeds.

Yes, just pull them out of the pen. You can clean and reuse nibs and feeds or slip in new ones. Our pens are modular regarding nibs and feeds.

Yes, that's what our pens were originally designed for. Since then the range of inks and paints has grown and grown together. Where ink turns into paint is a judgment call. You can use all artistic media in our pens.
