Brause Extra Fine 66 Nib
Item #:

$2.99
The Brause EF66 is one of our most popular nibs, and is loved by calligraphers everywhere for it's flexibility, impressive strength, and amazing line variation. From tiny hairlines to juicy downstrokes, this nib does it all. The Brause EF 66 also does not catch as easily as most extra-fine nibs, so it makes a great choice for lettering on textured paper. Sometimes referred to as "the Arrow" due to its unique shape.
This nib is ideal for intermediate or advanced level calligraphers and is not recommended for beginners. Excellent for Copperplate, modern calligraphy, and tiny writing. Suitable for Spencerian.
This nib will not fit standard holders; try one of our adjustable holders, or a holder specially fitted to hold the Brause EF66:

Flexibility
This nib allows for great flexibility with pen strokes, from very fine lines to proportionately larger swells, that are needed for Post-Renaissance scripts. I have used this nib mostly for letter or card size projects. Its very smooth finish allows for distinct lines without catching on the paper. Even thickening the ink a little does not impair its fine performance, but can increase its usefulness with different types of paper. It holds a reasonable amount of ink, so that a short sentence can be written without dipping again. Wiping the point clean while writing helps maintain a steady ink flow and reduces any risk of unintended blurriness. It is a tremendous amount of fun adding detailed flourishes with this nib. It is hard to describe how such a small nib can add so much improvement to one's efforts: It does the hard work for you! I would definitely not want to miss giving this nib a try. Thank you!

Performance of this nib.
This nib has remarkable flexibility allowing for very fine lines, as well as contrasting swells, to be created in response to slight pressure. Thank you for offering this selection!
