This premium dip pen from Japan's Kitera Co. is made from gorgeous raw brass and fitted with a special, high-capacity G nib. It's highly practical — because the included Tachikawa G Nib is fitted with a reservoir that allows it to write for much longer than an ordinary dip pen. It's also an elegant, romantic design that will make a lovely gift for any artist.

The choice of raw brass for this pen holder means that no two are the same. From the moment you take it out of the box until it's been in your studio for years, your Raw Brass Dip Pen will have unique coloration that changes as it interacts with your hands. You can use your favorite metal polish to return this pen to its original shiny finish whenever you choose.

Connecting the brass handle with the nib is an important part: the near-universal nib mount from Tachikawa. An outer ring holds standard nibs like the one that's included. An inner ring holds smaller "crowquill" or "mapping" nibs. You can easily remove the nib for cleaning or replacement.

Packed in a dark brown gift box. Made in Japan.
