Glass pens work well with virtually any ink and are easy to clean, making them a popular choice for testing new inks. But they aren't just for testing. They are easy to use and can write multiple sentences between dips, so they're more convenient for writing than a typical dip pen. Additionally, the glass nib will never rust or wear out, so it can last a lifetime if well preserved.

The dip pen is easy to clean. Rinse with clean water and dry with a paper towel after use. You only need to spend 10 seconds cleaning before switching other colors.

To use this pen:
Dip the tip part-way into a bottle of your favorite ink.
Gently scrape the sides of the nib against the opening of the bottle to drain the excess ink. The only ink left on the nib should be the ink held inside the tiny capillary grooves that spiral around the tip.
As you write, turn the pen slightly whenever the pen starts to run dry, allowing the ink from other grooves to be used.

Great Glass Pens

Very pretty and great to draw with - holds a good amount of ink and doesn't drip.

The tip comes to an awkward blunt point. Not a pleasant writing experience. I might try filing it to see if I can fix it, otherwise I will not get any use out of it.

Lovely glass dip pen!

This is a fun glass dip pen that I use to test out my ink samples. It's comfortable write with and it looks so cute! It was packaged very well, wrapped in bubble wrap and made it all the way from China to USA in 12 days. Thank you!
