Calligraphy Pen - Choosing A Perfect Calligraphy Pen For You
Choosing a calligraphy pen set may seem easy and simple but one should bear in mind that this is the main equipment which brings out the beauty in the writing. Hence the calligraphy pen set will make a lot of difference and it depends on the individual's choice. If you have the right calligraphy set you can make your hobby a fruitful business as well. For instance if you are practicing Western calligraphy, you should choose the set that is best suited for this.
The calligraphy set meant for the Western calligraphy art will have nibs, ink and a pen holder. You should concentrate on choosing the most comfortable pen holder to enable you to bring out your skill to a better level with each practice. The choice of ink and nibs depends on the pen holder which is meant to give comfort throughout the entire learning process.
Though a calligraphy pen resembles a normal fountain pen, its structure differs with the variation in nibs and ink. The nibs are removable and can be replaced without discarding the entire pen. Each nib has its own ink reservoir with the exception of some calligraphy pen sets that have the reservoir attached to the pen itself. However, most calligraphers prefer to have the reservoir attached to the nib.

Pen holders form the most crucial part of the pen as this must be comfortable and feel 'right' in the holder's hands. They are made from different materials like wood, glass, ivory, bone or plastic to suit the user's choice. They are of different shapes and sizes with thin nibs or fat nibs for the choice of lettering. Their colors are vibrant and the entire calligraphy pen set should feel comfortable in the hand of the user for the finest results.
A calligraphy pen set is sometimes fitted with cork or rubber holders that give a perfect grip on the fingers. Some pen sets are light while others are heavy, but it is advisable to opt for lighter pen sets for free movement of the nib to begin with. Some users prefer heavy pens so they don't press too hard while writing on the paper and they hold more firm on the paper. There are a few calligraphers who shop for unusual calligraphy pen sets wherever they travel to take home as souvenirs.
It should be noted that certain manufacturers make nibs that would fit only the pen manufactured by them. This would not allow nibs of other pens to fit your generic .
Though this may seem a good business for the manufacturers, for a calligrapher whose hobby is collecting pen holders it is not an ideal situation. It is not always the most expensive pen holder that makes good lettering. It is extremely important to realize that the utility and comfort are more important than attractiveness when choosing a calligraphy pen set.
