GC QUILLCalligraphy Feather Fountain Pen and Ink Set, Quill Pen with 5 Varied Nibs and Ink Cartridges, Calligraphy Set for Beginners – MU-15

I would absolutely recommend this quill pen as a treat for yourself or a fun and unique gift. It writes beautifully. I love that it is a quill pen that uses an ink cartridge instead of needing to dip in an ink pot every few strokes. The customer services is also amazing. I had an issue with one of my nibs (it was causing the ink to completely drain from the cartridge when placed upright). I reached out to the company’s direct support team and they responded right away and sent me a replacement. The replacement works perfect! Great product from a great company.

For the price, this is an amazingly fun pen!When I was in high school in the 1990's, my favorite pen, which I still have to this day, was a fountain pen in regular pen form exactly like this one. With cartridges that need to be load into the nib.I loved that pen but over the years, it has become clogged permanently despite cleaning, so I retired it. I keep it in a keepsake box as I did years of physics and Spanish work with it.Although I gave it 5 stars, there's some slight issues almost not even worth mentioning but as a VINE participant, I have to talk about them.The feather is a little cheap. I think it might have been a larger feather that was trimmed into this shape and literally screen printed with some type of hawk markings. Which is fine, but the feather quality is weird. I rubbed the feather grabbing it on my computer screen and all the fine hairs of the feather broke apart and I had to hand comb it back into place.The balance of writing is a bit off but of course it is, there's a damn feather at the end of it.It came with so many colors of cartridges that I may be writing books for the rest of my life.The ink quality is a little bit less than what I' want. I wrote on several types of paper and it bleeds very easily leaving a not so sharp lettering on the page.Also the nib sizes may have been inaccurate. The smallest one I have seems to still be pretty thick and I was expecting the smallest one to be that of a regular pen, like 1 micron. It's bigger so your smallest font width will still be thick.

The product works well, but the box is dirty. It had a dirty powdery residue and some ash. It looked like the box had been used for smoking.The pen works well, though.

This set is really cool. The different tips and nice and a good selection of colors. It may have just been an issue with a specific batch but as others have mentioned the little ball in the tips don't always fall back in place so there is leaking so just make sure to factor that in if you take the tips off before using all the ink.

You really have to learn calligraphy to get this pen to function, of course, but it's an awesome set to start out with. Much fancier than a plain old fountain tip plastic pen, this intricate feather pen allows you to feel that inherent desire to write like the founding fathers. It comes with a neat little box and inside it contains many different colors, ink, and all the things you'd need. There's also a little wood block for standing the pen on when not in use. Functionally, the pen works exactly as expected and writes well, although it will sometimes drop ink leading to splats on the page. Overall this is a good set if you want to learn calligraphy and feel fancy while you do it.

I'm really loving this large calligraphy pen set. I actually like that this pen uses an ink cartridge rather than the typical pen that requires frequent dipping. This is especially helpful for beginners.Refills for this are also easy to find, which ensures it can be used for years to come.It writes smoothly, but does require a learning curve. Take your time, watch a few videos online, and in no time you'll be writing and feeling like a pro. This pen has different size tips for different looks. I appreciate the amount of color refills it comes with as well as the lovely box. Really good value here.This is a great beginners set and/or gift!

Packaging/presentation is nice and it did come with everything it promised. I’ve never owned a fountain pen, but I love correspondence and stationary, etc, so I thought this would be a nice addition. The ink cartridges are easy to put in and open with some pressure and it doesn’t leak when it’s just sitting upright. The nibs store nicely in the pen holder box and are easily switched out. Use cation when handling at first-I got ink everywhere! I started writing on regular paper, not knowing that wasn’t appropriate and the ink just bled everywhere…very messy. I bought some calligraphy paper and it does make a huge difference. Ok, so there’s a learning curve-that’s not an issue with the product. Where this lost stars for me was it was actually not usable when it arrived. I put in the first ink cartridge and the nib would not screw into the metal part. I thought the cartridge wasn’t seated properly and tried some other trouble shooting to no avail. When I shined a light up into the metal part of the pen, there was something solid clinging to the side and impeding the cartridge. It took several tries with a thin, rigid metal tool for me to break up/off whatever that was (photo of three small pieces of something) and it was only after that the cartridge fit and I could use the pen.

The kit is pretty much a starter's dream for anyone looking to elevate their pen game.

Every signature now comes with its own little flourish.If you’re thinking about gifting this set, go for it. It combines historical charm with modern ease of use.
