This Herbin straight glass dip pen is made of clear and turquoise glass. The round body features a cross pattern design to match the turquoise Herbin Bleu Calanque ink. These hand blown glass pens are made in the tradition of 16th century Venice. Each pen is an individual work of art. The fine glass tips are twisted in a light spiral to hold the maximum amount of ink. Glass dip pens are great for both fountain pen ink or calligraphy/dip pen ink!

Our note: The instructions inside this glass pen say that you can smooth the tip with fine sandpaper. In our experience, it’s best to use micro mesh or mylar, as it’s finer than sandpaper and will sand less aggressively, minimizing the chance of irreversible damage. Note that when you sand it, you’re altering the tip and taking that risk upon yourself. The more you sand away, the broader the line the pen will write. Whatever you sand away, you can’t put back! So go lightly, and understand that glass pens are stiff and will inherently not feel as smooth as a fountain pen.

So nice for trying out ink samples!

This pen is awesome for switching inks quickly. I got a bunch of samples and this let me test them all out in 1 sitting. I appreciated the small piece of sandpaper that was included to help smooth out the nib. It was also nice to have a narrow pen that could fit into the sample bottles without hitting the edges.
