Positions nibs at the perfect angle for Copperplate and Spencerian flourishes
Standard pen positioning fights against natural hand movement and proper letter formation. This oblique holder solves that problem by angling the nib ahead of your hand, aligning the point with your stroke direction rather than forcing awkward wrist contortions. The offset flange positions pointed nibs, Hunt 101 Imperial and 103 specifically fit this holder, at the precise angle Spencerian scripts and ornamental flourishes require.
Speedball engineered this holder so the nib travels where your hand naturally wants to move. That alignment matters during extended lettering sessions when maintaining consistent slant and pressure across entire passages. The angled construction keeps your hand in comfortable position while the nib maintains proper contact with paper, essential for the thick-thin contrast that defines formal pointed pen styles.
Whether you're left-handed and tired of smudging wet ink or working through Copperplate exemplars that demand specific nib angles, this holder eliminates the compensation and adjustment that standard straight holders require. The result: cleaner letterforms, less hand fatigue, and the freedom to focus on rhythm and spacing rather than fighting your tools.
