A Calligraphy Pen Set

Yesterday, I showed you one of the calligraphy pens we promote here at Office1000. it was a doubleheaded calligraphy pen with one end having a 3.0mm chisel tip while the other end contains a 1.5mm one.

If this kind of set-up does not work out for you, then that would be definitely be acceptable. We all have our specific requirements. It may be that you prefer to bring along multiple pens. It may be that you would rather have fountain-pen-based calligraphy pens. Or it may just be that the sizes in the featured calligraphy pen are not useful for you.

In any case, we have other calligraphy tools here that might take your interest. Among them is this calligraphy deluxe set, which features three quill pens, three different-sized nibs, a variety of ink cartridges, an ink converter, and an instruction booklet.

It's the complete set of tools for any aspiring professional calligrapher. The more pieces there in a set, the more variety there is. The entire set is also contained in a reusable tin, so that you can carry the entire set with you wherever you go.

Name badges aren't just for meetings any more

It used to be that the only time you ever saw those little name badges was at a seminar somewhere where they wanted to be able to know your name since they didn't know one attendee from another.
