My Last (And "first" Too) Dip Nib Pen Holder (With "reservoir")

[franzrogar]

Hi,

 

I present you my last dip nib pen holder hand-made by Renée Meeks (Scriptorium Pens) and my first hand-engraved by myself using drypoint technique. Where it should be the ink holder (if it were a fountain pen), there's an empty space to hold other dip nibs :-D

 

Here are two videos of it with my mobile :-) Sorry for the shaking video, but I've thalassemia and it's really hard to keep my hand steady (I had to place the phone against my chest to stabilize it).

 

Let me know what you think of it ;-)

Nice work.

 

Using the barrel to hold spare nibs (instead of ink) is a great idea for a dip pen!

 

Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
