Made in Japan.
This is an excellent pointed nib for beginners in Modern Calligraphy, as it's super-flexible. Nikko G Nibs are high quality, hand-cut, chrome-plated Japanese pens which give very fine hairlines. They're extremely smooth and long lasting.
The nib will have an invisible protective serum on it to keep it from rusting. Please remove this before use, by dipping the nib in hot water and rubbing off the film. Head over to the blog post to find out other ways to prepare your nib.
