Glass pen and pen holder set – ink writing kit
This writing set includes a glass pen, a pen holder, interchangeable nibs, and ink for calligraphy, handwritten correspondence, journaling, and graphic ink sketches.
The glass pen allows for more continuous writing thanks to its spiral grooves, which retain ink between dips. The pen holder and metal nibs offer greater variations in pressure, line thickness, and line contrast.
The set is suitable for those who want to explore various writing sensations in one kit: the fluid stroke of the glass pen, the more expressive trace of the metal nibs, fine lines, thick strokes, thin upstrokes, and ink textures on paper.
INFORMATION
This set allows you to compare two dip writing tools. The glass pen is suitable for regular lines, ink tests, and continuous writing. The pen holder, on the other hand, allows you to change nibs according to the desired style.
Metal nibs react more to hand pressure. They are suitable for thick and thin strokes, titles, handwritten letters, cards, notebooks, and calligraphy exercises.
The rigid box allows you to keep the tools together after use. Results may vary depending on the paper used, ink fluidity, writing angle, and pressure applied.

USE & CARE
Lightly dip the glass pen or metal nib in ink, without unnecessarily submerging the entire tool. Remove excess ink on the edge of the bottle if the flow seems too strong.
Use paper suitable for ink to limit smudging, snagging, and excessive bleed-through. Paper that is too thin or too absorbent can significantly alter the line rendering.
After use, wipe the nibs and gently rinse the glass pen with clear water if necessary. Thoroughly dry metal parts before storing to limit dried ink residue.
COMPOSE YOUR WRITING KIT
To keep this kit with a ready-to-use notebook, you can pair it with the
notebook and pen case,
useful for carrying a pen, fountain pen, or pencil without a full pencil case.
For writing, journaling, and workshop notes, it can accompany the
leather-bound notebook
or the
black constellation notebook.
To compose letters, envelopes, or decorated pages, this set can complement the
wooden alphabet stamps
and the
6-motif sealing wax stamps.
🤍 Ikane Workshop Tip
Lightly wiping the nibs after each writing session helps limit dried ink residue. To test a new ink, start on a scrap piece of paper to observe the flow, sharpness, and drying time.
