Gullor Oblique Calligraphy Dip Pen Nib Holder, Removable Nib Pen Handle Stand with 33 Nibs, Blue Review (2026)

What is included

This Gullor set pairs one resin oblique calligraphy pen with 33 nibs in a single package, giving a large supply to work through while learning pointed-pen technique. The pen holder is approximately 17 centimeters long and made from resin rather than wood or plastic, which gives it a glossier, more polished look than many budget holders. Gullor markets it as both a functional writing tool for pointed pen calligraphy or broad edge and italic work, and as a decorative desk piece, since the resin body and included stand-style presentation are designed to look attractive sitting out rather than stored away. The pen is sold under Gullor's broader calligraphy pen line, which the brand also offers in other colors and as a handcrafted variant.

Working with 33 nibs

Having 33 nibs in one box means a letterer can go through a large number of practice sessions before running out, and can also compare several nibs side by side to find the ones that suit their hand and preferred script. As with most large bundled nib assortments aimed at beginners, though, quality across that many pieces is not guaranteed to be uniform, and it is common for some nibs in a big batch like this to write more smoothly than others. New users should expect some trial and error to find their favorites rather than assuming every nib performs identically out of the box.

The removable handle design

The holder features a removable nib handle and stand setup, which makes swapping nibs more straightforward than holders where the flange is harder to access, and also lets the pen rest upright on its stand while ink dries between strokes or during breaks in a longer session. That combination of a removable, easy-to-swap flange and a resting stand is a practical pairing for someone actively testing multiple nibs from the included assortment, since it removes some of the friction of constantly changing nibs by hand without a stable place to set the pen down.

Material feel

Resin construction gives this holder a smooth, glossy finish and a certain visual appeal that plain wooden holders do not have, and Gullor also sells versions of this same pen described as handcrafted, positioning it partly as a decorative or gift item. That said, buyers comparing it against traditional wooden oblique holders should be aware that some plastic components in the flange and stand assembly can feel less premium than an all-wood or metal-flange holder built specifically for serious pointed-pen practice, even though the resin body itself looks and feels solid.

Where it ranks

Among oblique pen holders, this Gullor set ranked third of seven in site comparisons, behind CHUANGRONG-US's dedicated brass-flange holder and the Zonon 2-in-1 convertible set, but ahead of a wooden English oblique holder and two Penmen United holders. The large 33-nib bundle and the removable-handle stand design are the clearest reasons to consider it over a bare holder with only a few nibs included, particularly for someone who wants to sample a wide range of nib styles without multiple separate purchases. Letterers who already own a preferred nib brand may find less value in the bundled assortment, but as an all-in-one starter purchase it removes much of the guesswork around which nibs to buy first.
