Zonon 6 Pieces Handmade Glass Dip, Crystal Glass Signature Calligraphy Vintage Dip Ink Pen Borosilicate Present Pen for Writing Drawing Decoration(Stylish Color,Bright Style)

These all arrived intact. The bubble wrap was rolled into a narrow box, and I was very careful while unrolling it. The ends of the pens have protective sleeves on them, and I am super careful removing and replacing those, too. All of the pens are beautiful, and the art store sells similar glass dip pens for $15 each. Even if some are scratchy, the ends can be rubbed down a little, and it is still a better value than gambling that one from the store will be perfect. At least with this set, there are six chances for it to be good, and none seem like they will be off or unusable. I have rubbed the ends of three of them on the fabric of an upholstered chair, for several passes, while rotating the pens, as it seemed to have good tension and just enough fabric coarseness, which wasn't much. That took the snaggy bits off the ends, and they all seem just right now. I have an assortment of inks and watercolor paint to try with these, and my daughter already drew a picture with one. She used Forgotten Iced Coffee ink on toned tan paper, and really enjoyed the glass dip pen.

This is my first time using glass dip pens. I got them mainly to test out new fountain pen inks and for this purpose they work great! The longer tipped ones hold a decent amount of ink and had a little bit better flow control than the shorter tipped ones, but it might be user error. I think they would work better for writing than the shorter ones. For reference a long tipped one was used on the black paper and each color tested was dipped in ink only once. I could write out two lines, color some of the butterfly, and still had extra ink I needed to wash off before testing another color. A short tipped one was used on the white paper, and I used multiple dips on most, but the paper quality maybe a factor in flow. Only one or two felt scratchy writing on the page, and I've read that can be an issue with more expensive ones too. That can be fixed by careful sanding with a very fine grit sandpaper. All in all, these are quite beautiful, sturdy pens and a great value at $11.99 for six. Even if only one or two wrote well it'd be a bargain in my opinion. *All the inks tested were from Ferris Wheel Press.

Absolutely beautiful. I am using these in my watercolor art and they are perfect for lines and making veins in leaves.

First, all my pens arrived in one piece and well-packaged. They were tightly wrapped in bubble wrap and the box they were in was also very tight and not flimsy. So that was great! I do have mixed feelings about these, though. Some of the pens work really well, and a couple just don't. It's like the tip isn't quite right. I will try filing them down and see if that helps. But, ultimately, I've drawn several pictures with just these and I'm loving the variation I can get in the ink flow, the feel of the pens, and everything. I just wish they weren't so fragile as it limits me a little. But they are beautiful and work really well. I anticipate using these for quite some time and maybe getting a second set in the near future (since they are so fragile). I love how easy they are to clean!! Not a spot of ink left on them!

These are beautiful and work wonderfully

Frankly I am impressed! Great product for such great price too! They write smoothly, are well made and work wonderfully.

These glass pens themselves are not bad. They are pretty and functional, the tips are a little bolder than I like, but they work. How they were packed is why I am only giving this product 3 stars. They arrived in a thin box, rolled together in one envelope of bubble wrap. The pens were not individually protected and two of them sustained broken handles. If you order, be aware that they may not make it in one piece. But because of the sale price I paid for these, there is no point in returning them. It would cost me more in terms of gas and time for me to do so.

Love the color and the feel. The quality is great.

These pens were packaged nicely and arrived safely with no breakage. They are 100% glass, they do not have flat metal nibs attached like cheaper dip pens. Instead the tip is whorled glass, integral to the piece. All the pens arrived with soft plastic tip protectors and they were rolled in bubble wrap, good idea. Unfortunately, one of the six pens was very slightly chipped at the tip during manufacture. This makes its tip drag and catch on my paper, and splotch the W&N ink, so I will have to try to sand off its sharp edge. But all in all they're lovely to hold, very pretty things. Thanks to small variations in their tips, I noted nice variation in the lines they make (thicker to thinner) which is good for calligraphy or script by hand. Not as perfect or magnificent as my favourite glass dip pen which was handmade in Murano/Venice -- and priced accordingly -- but these pens are good value for the money and fully acceptable for what they are. Very nice starter set for an art journal enthusiast or greeting card maker.
