Original Flourish - Oblique Calligraphy Pen

$50.00 Sale Save

A perfect starter pen fitted with my universal nib holder.

This batch of Black Flourish Calligraphy Pens have a silky matte black finish which sings quality and craft.  The black edition not only looks beautiful but is designed to be the best tool for the job.

You can now park the pliers and say sayonara to screws. Instead all you need to do is place your favourite nib in the holder, twist and you’ll be back to flourishing in a flash!  

My unique design fits nibs as large as a Nikko G, all the way down to smaller nibs like the Brause 66EF, as well as our 3.5mm pencil lead, so you can draft your creations before committing to ink.

 

As no two calligraphers are the same, I designed the pen so that you can easily customise the angle of the nib to suit your calligraphy style. I’ve also refined the balance of the pen so that the centre of gravity sits between your forefinger and your thumb joint, making it feel neither top nor bottom heavy.

Your calligraphy style is unique to you, so why shouldn’t your pen be too?  It’s the reason I dip dye each and every pen by hand, lending them their own totally unique characteristics.

I’am very satisfied with my new pen. 😄
Have only used a straight dip pens before and now I wen’t for an oblique from Tom’s Studio.
A decision without regret. A pen with good qualtiy and with possibiltie to adjust for use of different nibs and even the angel of the nib can easily be adjusted.
Interersting that development of old tools is possible!

Sorry to never reply to all your lovely emails, but the pen was a Birthday present to my daughter who is very keen on calligraphy - she’s a long way away travelling at the moment, so rating will have to wait.

My favourite pen

I've waited for some time for the restock but it was well worth it. I own quite a few oblique penholders, also from TS, but this one wins it for me. It is sleek, with nice heft, feels great in my hand and the ability to set the angle of the nib against the paper is absolutely priceless.
I can highly recommended this pen.

Beautiful Pen

I absolutely love this pen, high quality craftsmanship, precision engineered, and it looks fantastic. The pen has some weight and feels expensive. Best Oblique Pen I have. It allows customization of the nib pitch angle with a small hex key provided and with an adjustable side screw it custom fits every nib width precisely. The email feedback after purchasing this pen from Toms Studio was first class and it arrived in Australia very quickly. It comes presented in a classy box with a tea bag, :-) 100% recommend this product.
