Set consists of 10 SQUARE cut nibs of sizes 0, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5 and 6, Standard Penholder (Nut Brown) and 2 Round Hand Reservoirs. This nice looking set even comes with a small magnet to help pick out the nibs from the box!The nibs are square-cut and therefore this set is only suitable for right-handed calligraphers. Apologies if you are left-handed but Leonardt don’t appear to make this set using left-oblique nibs.Leonardt Round Hand Set

The William Mitchell Round Hand Vintage nibs are now available.We have now sorted out all these nibs, which was quite a task and took longer than we originally thought it would. Anyway, we have most sizes but unfortunately we do not have complete sets (from size 0 to 6).We do have some of the William Mitchell Square Cut nibs in sizes 4.5 and 5.5. These two sizes were discontinued some time ago.We also have a handful of right oblique nibs, which I have never seen before.Square Cut Nibssizes: 00, 0, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6Left Oblique NibsSizes: 00, 1 and 2.Plus a couple of sets of 3 nibs (sizes 1,2,3)Right Oblique NibsSizes: 1.~~Plus a couple of sets of 3 nibs (sizes 1,2,3)~~

Vintage Nibs

We have just taken delivery of some nibs. The nibs came in a storage box which holds 24 small partitioned containers. Each container has a varying number of nibs in them. Some have just a handful of nibs whilst a couple are nearly half full.We are in the process of sorting them out before they are made available for purchase.So far we have found some vintage Gillott 170, 290, 303 and 404 nibs. Also William Mitchell Round hand nibs, but I don’t know what sizes yet. There are a couple of nibs that I have never heard of, so I’ll ask in the Scribblers Community.
