Use & Care

  • The nib holder will gradually brighten to a true indigo color with use and handling. If the nib holder becomes dry, apply some beeswax.
  • Friction may cause the color or beeswax finish to transfer.
  • To prevent distortion and discoloration, avoid soaking in water, sudden temperature changes or extreme heat, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
  • When removing the nib from the nib holder, gently pull it out while turning to avoid dislodging the nib mount.
  • Due to the nature of the material and treatment, grain and color will vary between pieces.
  • If marked with ink, wipe clean with a soft cloth.
  • After rinsing, shake well in a downward motion to remove any water or ink from the nib mount before inserting a nib.

Nib Compatibility Chart

This nib holder, crafted from Japanese cherry wood and finished with the traditional aizome indigo dyeing technique, blends functionality with timeless beauty. 

Measuring 7 inches, it’s designed for comfortable writing, fitting naturally in the hand like a standard pencil. 

Compatible with most nibs, including those in our collection, it allows you to pair it with your favorite nib or switch nibs to match your creative mood.

The rich indigo finish enhances the wood’s elegant grain, with each holder meticulously hand-dyed by a skilled artisan. 

Over time, the color gently softens to a classic indigo hue, adding character with use.

To maintain its luster if the wood dries, simply polish with beeswax.
