How to choose calligraphy and hand lettering supplies

Choose tools by lettering style: broad-edged nibs or chisel pens create italic and blackletter scripts, pointed flexible nibs make copperplate, and brush pens suit modern brush lettering. Beginners often start with brush or chisel pens before moving to a dip pen.

• Use smooth paper so ink does not feather or catch the nib.
• Guideline sheets help keep letter heights and slant consistent.
• Dip pens need an oblique or straight holder to suit the nib.
• Clean dip nibs after each session to prevent ink build-up.
