    Can you put the Bortoletti glass replacement nibs in the Bortoletti wood and brass calligraphy pen?

    Hello Ottie. Thank you for asking.

    Yes you can. All you have to do is remove the steel ferrule that holds the normal nib in place and the glass nib will slide in perfectly.

    Kind regards,

    Jane Lappage

    How do I swap a glass nib for a steel nib in the Bortoletti dip pens?

    To change a nib in a Bortoletti dip pen, first pull the existing metal or glass nib straight out from the holder. If you are switching from a metal nib to a glass nib, you may also need to remove the small metal collar, or ferrule, from the tip of the holder using your fingernail. Once that is removed, slide the new nib into place and check that it is seated firmly and sitting straight so the ink flows properly.

    There is also a helpful video from the Procincial Pen Co. showing how to change Bortoletti dip pen nibs here: Watch the video tutorial.
