Description:
This glass nib was created to make glass pens more approachable for everyday use. Made from durable borosilicate glass and meticulously crafted by skilled artisans, it delivers the unique pleasure of writing with glass. Fits most nib holders as well as those from our range. *Nib holder sold separately.
The design was developed in collaboration with specialist laboratory glassmakers, Tatsu Glass, to address the challenges of mass production. The rust-resistant stainless steel component is made with exceptional precision, reflecting the essence of Japanese craftsmanship.
The nib offers the distinctively firm feel of hard glass, producing a well-balanced line that is neither too bold nor too fine. The carefully crafted grooves enhance ink retention, allowing you to write a full sentence with just one dip.
Tip size: Fine to Medium.
