PILOT PARALLEL CALLIGRAPHY PENS

Description

Pilot Parallel Calligraphy Pens capture the art and charm of beautiful handwriting with a very cherished and unique form of expression, calligraphy. A major breakthrough in calligraphy pen design, Pilot’s Parallel Pens feature a nib that consists of two parallel plates allowing the experienced or novice writer to produce crisp, smooth flowing lines. If it’s too difficult to choose just one ink colour, gently blend the ink of two Parallel Pen nibs together to create mixable inks with remarkable colour effects. Load two pens, each with a different but compatible colour of cartridge. Hold one pen vertically and touch the second pen to the first pen for a few seconds. Begin to write with the first pen and delight in the blending of the two colours. Each set comes with a Parallel Pen, one black and one red ink cartridge, a converter to properly flush the pen, nib cleaner and use & care guide. Parallel Pens are available in four nib widths, each packaged separately: 1.5mm, 2.4mm, 3.8mm and 6.0mm.

Calligraphy Pens have come a long way since thousands of years ago when the Egyptians first used reeds fashioned from bamboo-like plants to scratch messages in mud or stone. Although calligraphy pens evolved over time, the same artful expression of the scripted word is still capable of assigning subtle meanings not available when using typeface letters. In fact, calligraphy preceded the alphabet and was likely the catalyst for the creation of a fixed set of ornate but assigned letters. With the passing of generations, other materials such as hair from animals and quills from feathers were used by different cultures to communicate written expressions. Even today’s modern metal-nib calligraphy pens and fountain pens can be traced to less modern times when metal tipped writing instruments were used to engrave letters in thin sheets of wax. Notwithstanding, many of those who appreciate hand lettering of architectural sketches, technical drawings, artistic works, and even expressive doodling believe the calligraphy pen can achieve a much higher level of detail.
