Step into the world of timeless elegance with the Manuscript Heritage Quill Correspondence Set, a treasure trove for aficionados of fine writing and traditional correspondence. This exquisite set includes a large Red Quill adorned with three nibs: the versatile Accommodation Tip & Nib, the Classic #44 nib, and the precise Round 3 ½ nib, ensuring a writing experience tailored to your style.

Use the Accommodation nib for a selection of calligraphy and handwriting projects. The unique design allows the pen to be held at a slant, allowing a more natural and ergonomic position for writing, reducing strain and making it easier to maintain consistent letterforms and smoother strokes - particularly useful for elegant scripts like italic, copperplate or Spencerian styles.

The classic #44 nib is a versatile nib, known for its reliability and adaptability. It strikes a balance between flexibility and stiffness making it ideal for a range of writing speeds and pressures. It handles varying ink flow well, produces clean lines and provides consistent results making it popular with both traditional and modern calligraphers of all different skill levels. The classic #44 nib can be used with a variety of calligraphy inks including both water-based and pigment-based inks.

The Round 3 ½ nib is valued for its ability to create elegant, structured letterforms in foundational calligraphy. Ideal for roundhand scripts characterized by their rounded, uniform strokes and even spacing between letters. With a moderate width, this nib is suitable for both large headings and smaller texts. It allows for smooth transitions between thick and thin strokes, essential for creating balanced lettering. It remains a popular choice among all calligraphers.

Accompanying the large red quill is a generous 25ml bottle of black Calligraphy ink, a classic and sophisticated colour to use in your creations. Shake well before use and ensure any residual ink on nibs is washed off after use.

Complete your correspondence with two traditional sealing waxes in rich red and opulent gold. The long wick is designed to allow the wax to drip evenly onto the paper prior to using the ceramic mini seal which adds an authentic touch of refinement.

The Manuscript Heritage Quill Correspondence Set includes envelopes and writing paper, providing the perfect canvas for your handwritten notes and invitations. Enhance your mastery of the art of writing with the insightful Art of Writing leaflet, guiding you through techniques and historical context.

Indulge in the artistry of handwritten communication with the Manuscript Heritage Quill Correspondence Set, where every detail whispers of tradition and craftsmanship, making it an ideal gift for connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike. From The Heritage Collection, each set embodies a rich history, marked by the esteemed D.Leonardt & Co Crown—a rare trademark upheld through five generations.
