I got one as a present several years ago - I didn't have a lot of difficulty with it, but I was treating it like a technical pen (Rapidograph, Leroy, etc). But I can see where approaching it from a regular quill or dip nib hold would cause problems. As always a great video, thanks for sharing your skill.

This is my 2nd time watching people teach calligraphy. Your handwriting is simply stunning! You make it look so seamless and easy... but i know better! I plan on watching as many of your tutorials as possible. I've always tried to learn different styles of writing.. using books. The internet has opened up a whole new way to learn. I've always been a visual learner... TH-cam is going to change everything for me! I can't wait! I love your you're music. P.s. Beethoven's 9th playing in the background makes is even better!....(I played that at my first piano recital at age 7).
Whilst I watched your writing skills, I kept clenching and curling my fingers - as if I want to try them out myself, because those “curlings” turned me on most of the time. Plus, the background music is a perfect accommodation for the video.
I have several glass pens. I love them. I especially love them for producing pen and ink line drawings. @6:57 My glass pens work fairly well with fountain pen ink, or with the Iron Gall ink I made myself. The do no work so well with the Speedball India ink. The India ink works well with my metal nibs.
I bought one as a souvenir in Venice. I’ve written sparingly with it - it’s mostly decorative. It has a glass nib and a wooden shaft. It’s too beautiful to use every day, but you wouldn’t want to anyway
lol yoo i was thinkin' the same ting lol. I was hoping it'd be a guyanese accent but it definitely sounds trini!! I even scrolled thru the comments to see if anyone thought the same as I did lol
I love my glass pen .the ink flows quite well and lasts longer than pointed dip pen . Bought them on Amazon. The tip does become dull over time either evenly or on one side, a light hand should help . The letter forms stand out with a glass pen , and some inks work better than others , I love using the sumi ink with it and give it a thorough clean after use, the paper you use depends on the ink you are working with.
I have a pen very similar to this, I got it more for beauty of the glass craftsmanship, but I’m very glad this video was suggested to me because now I want to learn to to use it properly.
@@CalligraphyMasters after your reply for some random TH-cam troll comment.. I assume you are not familiar with "sarcasm"... lol... And I think he was joking with that suggestion...
Omg ive been using the pen wrong XD my boyfriends mum got it for me, and id never seen one and i thought it was a caligraphy pen (which im very good at) it made me so frustrated that i couldnt do caligraphy XD thank u for this video!!!
Wow you have beautiful writing Paul Antonio. My writing is bad because I have a lot of pain and cramping in my hands. I might pick up painting again so I'm looking forward to that.
Questioning myself why im even watching this. Im too lazy to write using pen, id rather use keyboard. But still watched it anyway, so yt can stop recommending this. Nice pen and handwriting btw.
Well, it's almost 4am and I have class in the morning, yet I'm here... However, this is marvelous, I really like calligraphy and watching people write it, but I don't think I could ever have the patience, dedication or steady hands to do it... Nice video 😉
Well it's not that easy to break it! If press a lot, LIKE A LOT, might break, but it can take some pressure. More likely to break if you drop it or something like that.
We're supplementing by teaching our children cursive at home. Its ridiculous that it will be a mostly lost art here soon if more parents don't also teach their children.
While the design is beautiful and all, not only would I never be able to use it ever. But it seems a bit too difficult as far as when writing something in a hurry. And it's results are not good enough to make me purchase one. It's probably best to use a different pen.
I was wondering about getting a glass pen and seeing the demonstration here and learning they are monoline is extremely helpful! Beautiful to look at but maybe not what I want right now (I think my Micron pens are comparable and more convenient).
His Voice made me relax. I love calligraphy I’m always designing new styles but I would never have a glass pen. I’m just too careless about my stuff in my pencil case.

Nope! Can be used both for drawing and writing ;)

@@starkiller7165 I actually like ball point pen. I find them smoother than ink pen
As I read from other comments, it's apparently useful for learning how to write, without applying too much pressure.
Using a glass pen, you have to constantly turn the pen; each of those grooves is a feed, and each one will run dry.
No you do not, surface tension makes to so all feed without needing to turn
I don't know why, but watching someone with beautiful writing/calligraphy skills just makes me sigh with relief. (my mom raised me to write in cursive and finding out its more or less a dying skill might be why lol)
