The Guitar Glass Pens feature tips with spiral-like grooves that hold ink. After dipping the tip in a bottle of ink, it can write like a normal pen. Easy to clean, these are perfect for testing multiple inks and using shimmer inks that might clog up a normal fountain pen. The nib is also removable so that you may deep clean it or replace it. Because these pens are handmade, each will be a slightly different swirl pattern.
The screw cap allows the glass pen to be stored safely unlike other glass pen models. The end of the pen has threads which allow the cap to be posted and elongate the body of the pen. This extended length allows for a more comfortable writing experience, as well as a convenient place to affix the cap so that it does not roll around on your desk.
Note: This dip pen writes best when held at a slight angle. Rotating the pen a little as you write helps the ink to flow more evenly and allows longer writing sessions before re-dipping.
To clean: Rinse nib in water. Wipe dry with a tissue or clean cloth. If particles of ink remain in the grooves, gently clean them with a fine-bristled brush.
