We marvel at hand written documents and letters from bygone times. Jealous of the flowing lines, the elegant script, the dated and yet so appealing prose. An age when writing a meaningful letter went with education. Daily correspondence was not unheard of at all! And when travelling The Grand Tour, journals were filled. With written notes, watercolors, reflections, puns and poems. Writing paraphernalia and accessories have always fascinated us. From the simple wood turned grade school stylus to the multicolored Venetian style glass writing pens for the upper class. Hand decorated desk inkwells, or an ornate bronze and marble piece de resistance. Blotters hand turned in precious wood. Antique shaped nibs in nickel and brass. Ink colors befitting a Victorian Lady's writing boudoir. Feather quills. It a pleasure for Authentic Models to re-issue many of these old Tools for Words. And turn them into wonderful gifts. For those who love the written word...
