Elevate your Arabic / Jawi calligraphy with our Qalam Jawi Calligraphy Pen, crafted from premium natural materials for durability, precision, and an authentic writing experience.
Features & Materials
- Reed nib from aren palm (Arenga pinnata). The nibs are carved from strong aren palm stalks, known for high fiber density that resists cracking and gives smooth ink flow.
- Teak wood handle. The pen body is finished in solid teak wood, giving it a comfortable grip, natural beauty, and long-lasting stability.
- Multiple nib size options (0.5 mm up to 5 mm). Choose the nib width that suits your style (fine detail strokes to bold thuluth or diwani).
- Hand-crafted precision. Each qalam nib is hand-shaped, trimmed, and polished to ensure sharpness, smooth edges, and optimal ink dispersion.
- Refillable & replaceable. Since it’s a dip-type reed pen, you can keep using it indefinitely — just clean and reuse or replace nibs as needed.
Benefits
- Authentic calligraphy experience. Ideal for Arabic, Jawi, Urdu, Persian scripts and classic Islamic calligraphic styles.
- Consistent ink flow & control. The aren-based nib balances firmness and flexibility to produce crisp strokes and control on paper.
- Eco-conscious & natural. Made from renewable and natural materials (reed + teak), minimal synthetic components.
- Ideal for all skill levels. Beginners to experts in calligraphy can use this; because of size options, it’s adaptable to fine detail or broad strokes.
Usage & Care
- Before first use, soak the reed nib lightly in water for a few minutes to reduce brittleness.
- Dip into your preferred black or colored ink; avoid overly thick (paste-like) inks to prevent clogging.
- After use, clean with distilled water, remove dried fibers, and dry horizontally to maintain nib shape.
- Store in a dry, cool place away from humidity to prevent warping or splitting.
