Blots Pen & Ink Supplies – calligraphy writing pens
It’s impossible to think of a world without large printers and even bigger stacks of books with perfect, mathematically precise fonts. However, it is still possible to get the thrill of handwriting and with Blots Pen & Ink Supplies’ calligraphy writing pens, you need not search anymore.
Handwriting has taken up a solely postcard pastime in recent times, and even those can be bought online.
Calligraphy came to its current definition from the Greek words ‘kallos’ and ‘graphein’.
Separated they mean ‘beauty’ and ‘write’ respectively and together they became a person who writes beautifully.
The writing draws upon finer fonts that can easily be replicated with practice. From italic and gothic fonts, to Roman rustic styles – you can master this forgotten art form.
Our Pilot Parallel range is an interesting twist on standard black and blue calligraphy. With the ability to change the colour of the ink (the range of colours is vast) by touching it to the nib of another pen of a different colour, it produces unique effects.

There are times when you want to add a drop or two of water to gouache but don’t have an eye dropper or pipette. One idea for a cheap alternative is to save a Jif lemon squeezer (after you’ve had your pancakes on Shrove Tuesday) and fill it with clean water. It will last for years and give you a cheap and useful dropper.
