Handcrafted ~ CALLIGRAPHY PENS ~ from WOODbyC

Wood Turnings by Cynthia = WOODbyC

My "Write Back" calligraphy pen was a finalist in the 2001 NICHE Awards category WOOD Turned. 

  2001 NICHE Award Finalist Calligraphy Pen by WOODbyC

It's an old-fashioned pen, but a new favorite of artists and calligraphers! 

Art Essentials Catalog Cover with WOODbyCIt also appeared on the 2007 cover of the Annual Art Essentials, Paper and Ink Arts Catalog, disguised as a dragonfly! 

My longer, classic quill is most popular. But I also make a version that's short and sweet (~4-1/2" handle length). Both feature a standard tapered grip, or my ergonomic flare, which fights fatigue as it gives your fingers a subtle ledge to press against. 

Bottle of InkAny Speedball (or similarly contoured) nib will fit in the mechanism. The new (or lightly used) nib that's pictured is complimentary. Instructions are provided for replacement.

 

Dip your nib in a bottle of ink and start flourishing!

 

(Ink not included, available at art supply stores. WOODbyC Daily blog has tips!)

For me, the greatest joy of woodturning happens when the shape emerges from a block of wood,

as if by its own design, capturing the moment when art meets craft.
