The Copperplate Calligraphy Kit

Copperplate calligraphy, renowned for its elegant flourishes and intricate letterforms, has a history spanning over 300 years.

The development of the pointed metal nib in the 19th century played a key role in its evolution, allowing calligraphers to create both delicate and bold strokes by adjusting the pressure on the nib. This innovation refined the style’s signature characteristics, enabling greater artistic expression.

Despite the rise of digital typography, Copperplate calligraphy has seen a resurgence in popularity. Today, it is used across a wide range of applications, from bespoke branding and art pieces to personalised correspondence and event stationery.

This renewed interest is driven by a growing appreciation for practical, traditional, and creative skills in an increasingly digital world.
