"I love the way this holder feels and it’s a pencil lead and nib holder all in one!" @hazelslettering

This limited batch of Black Flourish Calligraphy Pens have a silky matte black finish which sings quality and craft.  The black edition not only looks beautiful but is designed to be the best tool for the job.

You can now park the pliers and say sayonara to screws. Instead all you need to do is place your favourite nib in the holder, twist and you’ll be back to flourishing in a flash!  

My unique design fits nibs as large as a Nikko G, all the way down to smaller nibs like the Brause 66EF, as well as the included 2mm pencil lead, so you can draft your creations before committing to ink.

 

As no two calligraphers are the same, I designed the pen so that you can easily customise the angle of the nib to suit your calligraphy style. I’ve also refined the balance of the pen so that the centre of gravity sits between your forefinger and your thumb joint, making it feel neither top nor bottom heavy.

Your calligraphy style is unique to you, so why shouldn’t your pen be too?  It’s the reason I dip dye each and every pen by hand, lending them their own totally unique characteristics.

 

Good to know & FAQs:

• Each pen is beautifully presented in a gold foiled gift box.
  
  
• Every pen is machined from solid metals on a lathe used for making fine watch and aerospace grade components, so you can be sure your pen will write perfectly for years and years to come.
  
  
• Measures 145mm x 10mm and weighs 22g.
  
  
• Designed with the planet in mind. I’ve made sure that this pen is made from infinitely recyclable materials, such as brass and aluminium, which are easily separated (no glue or un-recyclable plastics here).

Tilt is designed to make dipping ink an absolute breeze. With two positions for when your ink pot is full and when it's getting low. The angle allows you to get just the right amount of ink on your nib without hitting the bottom of the container or uncomfortably bending your wrist.  The tilt pot holder also comes with a lovely rose-gold lidded pot which fits like a dream.  If you have similar sized mini jam jar style pots, they'll also work perfectly.  Happy Dipping!

Good to know...

- Your tilt is made from solid brass so it will last a lifetime.

The 'One Dip Wonder' really is a game changer. Having to dip your pen in ink half-way through writing can ruin your flow, cause an inky mess and take up your precious calligraphy time.  

After months of trial and error I've found the perfect answer to this problem!

 The 'One Dip Wonder' combines the perfect size spring with a tiny but powerful neodymium magnet creating a reservoir of ink for your calligraphy pen

All you have to do is pop it onto the back of the nib (underneath the breather hole) and you're ready to go!  

As you can see from the video it doesn't stop flowing!  

GOOD TO KNOW:

- The One Dip Wonder currently works with larger straight nibs like Nikko Gs, EF Principals, Hunt 101s etc. (Blue Pumpkin and Brause EF aren't currently compatible. )

- Please be sure to clean and dry your spring and magnet after each use to prolong their life.

PLEASE NOTE, DUE TO DEMAND THE CURRENT WAIT TIME FOR THE FLOURISH CAN BE AROUND 1-2 WEEKS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE :)

A little gem of a calligraphy pen! 

"So Beautiful, You make a fine pen Tom's Studio!"
Letters By Julia (Professional Calligrapher)

So many pens are made from cheap materials that look good but don't stand the test of time...I wanted to make a pen that did both.  The Flourish straight pen is machined from Solid Aluminium using lathes conventionally used to make watch parts (the long-lasting bit, no plastic here). They're then dip-dyed, lending them their own unique characteristics, and meaning your pen is truly yours (the good-looking bit).  I then fit them with Master Pen Maker Chris Yoke's stainless steel ferrule (not a speck of rust in sight!). The Flourish will also comfortably fit all nibs, from the biggest to the smallest.

The colour choices have increased two. I've kept the popular Pistachio, Blush and Ombré and included two more beauts with a new marbled finish - Deep Teal (my personal favourite) and Briar Rose. 

It's my hope that you'll be passing your pen down the generations, and that your grandchildren will get the same pleasure from using their Tom's Studio pen as you do.

Diamine 30ml bottle of nib cleaning solution, ideal for removing dried-on ink from calligraphy pen nibs, fountain pen nibs and feeds and brushes. Can also be used to rinse calligraphy pen nibs instead of water during a writing session.

Can be used to flush pens through, or to soak nibs and feeds.

30ml glass bottle.

My wife, Gemma Milly, has curated her own Modern Calligraphy kit containing everything you need to get started with Modern calligraphy. This beautiful gift set includes:

• a workbook to get you started, containing all the material that we cover in my 121 courses. It covers how to use your materials, instructions, examples to copy and exercises to practice
• a choice of a straight or oblique nib holder.
• black ink
• gold foiled pencil
• 40 page practice booklet, with tear-out guidelines and perforated pages. Smooth white bleed-proof paper, thin enough to place your guidelines underneath.

Everything is presented in a luxury white box with rose gold foiled logo. Perfect as a gift or for budding calligraphers wanting a professional kit to get started with.

The workbook will introduce you to modern calligraphy, as well as giving you a short background to the art and its origins. It will then explain how to hold and use your dip pen, before moving on to basic strokes and alphabets. Once you've got the hang go it, there are examples for you to copy and practice so you can begin to construct your own phrases. Written by Gemma Milly, a full-time calligrapher and teacher of Modern Calligraphy.

Please see pictures for nib holder choices and message me if you are unsure as to which holder to go for. The straight holder is an excellent choice if you are just starting out, whereas the oblique holder is really lovely to use once you get the hang of it, which won't take you long.

Box size: 32cm x 22cm x 4cm

If you are giving this kit as a gift, I will gift wrap the box and include a personalised notecard at no extra charge. Please let me know your message when ordering

 Inspired by the Japanese concept of Zakka, which loosely translates to “miscellaneous things” or "stuff".  These handmade spun brass trays are designed to give a home to the bits and bobs that may clutter your desk and in-turn giving you the headspace to do what you do best, create.

Each dish is hand spun by Craig from Spin 360.  He really is a master of his craft having been hand-making beautiful pieces for over 20 years.

Choose between the deeply textured hand patinated verdi-gris finish or natural spun brass.

 

Good to know

- Each dish is matte lacquered to keep them looking as good as the day you bought them.

- It’s effortlessly versatile. Use it as an elegant place to store coins, keys or jewellery, or as a soap dish in the bathroom. 

- Measures 90mm x 6mm deep

A replacement chrome nib ferrule for my straight calligraphy pens.

This is a gorgeous set of blue & green metallic tones. Made of mica, a natural mineral that offers a wide variety of metallic shades, from gold and silver to iridescent, shining pearl colours. In my opinion these inks are the best metallic colours on the market.

This set contains the following metallic colour tones:

Blue Pearl (Shimmer)

Green Pearl (Shimmer)

Blue Silver

Blue Green (Shimmer)

Moss Green

Midnight Blue

The pans can be replaced when they run out.

To use: simply dissolve with water and applied with a brush. Once the colour is the consistency that you’re happy with, simply paint onto the underside of your nib and you’re ready to go. They are perfect for creating special effects and highlights and are also ideally suited to all styles of calligraphy.

For the perfect colour result we recommend putting a few drops of water on the colour pan and letting it sit for a few minutes before using the colour.

These Pearl Colours are:

- ethically sourced

- light-fast and pigment-rich

- handmade in Germany

- vegan
