Osmiroid master calligraphy set
will get (or keep!) you working at the art of calligraphy. Seller says "calligraphy is a retro art overdue for a comeback."
Included are the
fountain pen
body, the so-called "
ink converter
" (a squeeze bladder to hold ink; pen may also be used with proprietary ink cartridges, none included), and
six (6) different screw-in nibs. Nibs are 22K gold-plated,
so will look beautiful and gleam forever. While seller has soaked the nibs in tapwater to clean them, some black ink residue likely remains. Note that under lighted magnification, seller has squinted to actually identify and inventory the individual nibs, which Include (see also description on rear of package) the broad straight, the fine straight, the medium straight, the B2, the B4, and the copperplate. Pen body is black in color and features an ivory colored band and a silver pocket clip; the pen body is not cracked, scratched, or engraved.
The original package and plastic holding/storage tray are also included, but seller could locate
NO instructions/usage guide
. The plastic tray is slightly ink-stained, and the front of the paper packaging is rough and worn, even as the plastic cover remains attached and the back appears in very good condition--clean, clear, and readable. Seller doubts that these issues will concern anyone who means to actually use the pen. Pen and its packaging come from a smoke-free household and carry no odors or stains.
Please see all my photographs, as they complete the description of this fine and classy pen set. Please note that the advertising promotion page is taken from a web source to illustrate the nib styles included and mentioned above. To be shipped by trackable USPS first class mail.
