BRASS NIB - Brass nib by KAKIMORI, Tokyo, Japan.
The brass nib was designed for durability and functionality. The tip has been carefully rounded and polished, allowing an exceptionally smooth writing experience, far beyond expectations.
Tilt the nib below 45° to create wavy lines and varying thicknesses like a brush stroke. When the ink intensity decreases, rotate the pen to get more ink into the grooves. One ink dip allows writing a message about postcard size.
Ideal for calligraphy and drawing. (For writing and achieving precise lines, choose the stainless steel nib.)
This nib meets universal characteristics to fit standard nib holders.

USAGE & MAINTENANCE
- Due to the nature of the material and its treatment, color and grain may vary from piece to piece.
- If ink gets on the wood, clean with a soft cloth.
- When removing your nib, pull gently while twisting to avoid detaching the fitting.
- After rinsing, shake well downward to remove all water or ink before inserting the nib.
- The maximum writing angle is 45°.
- A strong impact on the nib can compromise the ink flow accuracy.
- To prevent dried ink buildup in the grooves, rinse frequently with water during use.
- Remove dried ink by gently rubbing under water with a toothbrush.
- If you use a detergent, choose a product with a neutral pH. Avoid alkaline detergents that could damage the surface.
