Glass dip pen set – ink writing, fine lines, and color experiments
This writing set includes a glass dip pen, ink bottles, and a small inkwell for writing, drawing, annotating, or experimenting with ink colors.
The pen is dipped directly into the ink and then produces a fluid line that varies slightly depending on pressure, holding angle, and the paper used. Unlike a classic pen, it encourages you to load the tip, write a few lines, and then return to the ink when the line becomes lighter.
The 0.5 mm nib allows for a fine to medium line, suitable for words, symbols, decorative lines, visible annotations, and small details. The grooves in the pen retain ink and extend the line between dips.
INFORMATION
The glass dip pen allows writing with different colored inks without changing tools. Simply rinse the tip between inks to switch from one shade to another.
It is suitable for slow writing, notebooks, letters, color tests, visible annotations, short titles, and graphic compositions.
The line depends heavily on the paper. Paper that is too thin or too absorbent can cause ink bleed, widen the line, or show through to the other side.

USE & CARE
Lightly dip the tip into the ink, without immersing the entire pen. Remove excess ink on the edge of the bottle or inkwell if a drop forms.
Draw without pressing hard. The glass dip pen works by gliding: excessive pressure does not improve ink flow and can make the line less consistent.
Rinse the tip with clear water between colors, then gently dry with a soft cloth before replacing the pen in the box.

🤍 Ikane Workshop Tip
Before first use, test each ink on a scrap of paper. Lightly dip the pen, draw without forcing, then rinse the tip between colors to keep a clean line.
