Kakimori Nib Holder - Aizome

A nib holder crafted from Japanese cherry and finished by aizome, Japanese indigo dyeing.

Designed for ease of writing, the 7-inch length fits comfortably in the hand like a standard pencil. Pair with your favourite nib, or switch nibs to suit your mood. Fits most nibs as well as those from the Kakimori range. Please see here for a nib compatibility chart.

The elegant wood grain is accentuated by the deep indigo finish. Each nib holder is hand dyed with care by an indigo artisan.

The colour will gently fade to a true indigo with use. If the wood becomes dry, polish with beeswax to restore its lustre.

*Nib sold separately.
