A couple of years back, I stumbled onto a fellow who had inherited the entire inventory of his grandfather's decades-closed business: a massive supply of new old stock writing & calligraphy nibs. We had sold similar product at the shop, but I hadn't really been super familiar with their details -- as with so much we offered there, we put out the wares and let folks choose from among our secondhand offerings. This isn't as effective an approach online, where being able to assign keywords and accurate descriptors is a necessity that I have slowly embraced as time has permitted me to get curious about each product type we continue to carry. As I dug in to understand these tools, I found myself enamored: writing, testing, experimenting with various types of ink & pigment, and learning more about these tiny little bits of metal and how to use them for both function and beauty. I was hooked (so much so that I now hand write every thank you note using a dip pen and black walnut ink, made by hand). I've returned to the same grandson several times now over the last several years. These are shipped from the Netherlands via slow boat. Never used - still in new condition. With something as delicate as pen tips, it's sometimes nice to have unused ones (especially when you can't test them), so this is the option we've developed for sidestepping new manufacturing (or creating demand for the same -- when the purchase of new retail product indicates to a conventional retailer that they should order more).
