Quill nibs are smooth, flexible nibs that emulate a feather quil or reed depending on the size of the nib. Our Quill Nib Classic Pump Pen holds quill nibs securely while you twist and bend the quill nib to create different drawing effects. Lots of drawings by the great masters, including William Blake, John Ruskin, and Vincent Van Gogh used feather quills and reed pens to make their drawings. Shape the tip to your liking. Quill nibs skate across the paper effortlessly. You can use any ink, including India, or acrylic paint, even enamel and lacquer. Quill nibs are ideal with the thickest inks and paints.
