What is included in the set

This writing set comprises a wooden calligraphy dip pen, a glass inkwell with black ink, a bronze pen holder, a signature drier, and three antique nibs. Together, these elements create a complete desk ensemble for handwriting, display, and thoughtful gifting.

Wood and bronze with heritage character

Bronze and wood are the defining materials of the Steno set, giving it a warm, classic appearance inspired by traditional writing rooms and historic desk furnishings. The pen is crafted with care to create a balanced writing instrument that feels elegant in the hand and looks distinguished when displayed.

Lost-wax cast bronze detail

The calligraphy pen is expertly crafted by skilled Bortoletti artisans using the lost-wax casting process for its bronze detail. This traditional technique adds depth and character to the set, reinforcing its connection to Italian craftsmanship and decorative metalwork.

Inkwell with bronze screw cap

The inkwell is finished with a bronze screw cap and is designed to hold Hamburg calligraphy ink. This practical feature helps preserve the ink while adding to the set’s decorative appeal. The glass inkwell sits beautifully alongside the wooden pen and gives the whole set a balanced, cohesive appearance.

Pen holder and signature drier

A matching bronze pen holder and signature drier complete the set. Their original design and tapered shape evoke the elegance of times gone by, while also adding real usefulness to the writing experience. They help make the Steno set feel complete, practical, and visually distinctive on the desk.

The Steno set is an elegant choice for practising the art of beautiful calligraphy, writing important words, or simply enjoying the experience of traditional pen-and-ink writing.
