Deep Cuts: For the Calligrapher Who Has Everything
As soon as you saw this category, a person popped into your head. They have a drawer full of vintage nibs, more ink than they could possibly use in a lifetime, and very, very strong opinions about paper weight. Shopping for this type can feel impossible, so we went looking for things they might have missed. Some are a little unusual, some they'd never think to buy for themselves, and some are upgrades for the tools they use every day.
You'll find fountain pens with brush tips that give dip-pen like line variation, adjustable oblique holders, sumi ink sticks in colors difficult to find outside of Japan, and handmade decorative papers. Browse refillable pens small enough to hang on a keychain and truly one-of-a-kind dyed parchment produced by makers in New York's Hudson Valley. We've also added practical chouces like a wearable neck light for late-night lettering and a few good tote bags (you can never have too many of those).
