How do you seal a silver lid on a jar with sealing wax?

Hello Irene,

Thanks for asking. To seal a lid on a jar, you need to heat the end of the sealing wax with something like a kitchen lighter and carefully drip the melted wax over the area you want to seal. Then, while the wax is still warm, you can press your stamp.

Here is a video showing one method I found on YouTube:

How do I change the nib on a LA Kaligrafica? Many thanks and best regards

Hello Burkhard.

The nibs are removed by gently pulling them out of the ferrule and a new nib can be inserted around the outer ring of the ferrule.

You can watch a video here (in English): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzbvGKjD2dM&t=38s

Kind regards,

I am thinking of coming to one of your classes and would like to bring a friend with me to also take part. However she is left handed and often finds tutors are not able to accommodate her. Could you advise if this is something you are able to accom . . .

Hi Gail, 

Please do bring your friend along. I have taught many left-handed people over the years. The Modern Calligraphy style you will be learning is ideally suited to left-handers so they should be having a great time.

Do let me know if you have any other questions.

Kind regards,

Jane
