Metal Nib Copper

Metal Nib Copper transforms a simple dip pen into a versatile tool for both writing and drawing, where each movement creates a different expression.

Unlike traditional nibs, this solid copper form allows you to vary the line simply by adjusting the angle. Held upright, it produces a fine, controlled line. Tilted or drawn across the page, it opens into broader strokes, almost like a brush. This flexibility makes it equally suited to writing, sketching or more expressive mark-making.

The nib is carefully rounded and polished, creating a remarkably smooth contact with the paper. Designed for durability, it resists the wear of conventional nibs while offering a consistent and reliable ink flow over time.

Copper naturally oxidises when exposed to air. Your new nib may show a reddish tint or some spotting — this is normal and does not affect its performance. Thanks to the metal’s natural softness, the tip gradually rounds with use, resulting in bolder lines and a smoother writing experience over time. Enjoy a tool designed to evolve with your personal writing journey.
