The Pointed Pen

The first flexible, tined pointed pens were made from quills in the 17th century, and gained favor over broad-edge styles (in some parts of the world) with the industrialization of steel production in the 19th century.

Pointed pen styles, such as Copperplate, lend a sense of elegance and historicity to any text—whether it’s a recipe, a thank-you note, holiday greeting, a quote, or a handwritten invitation to a special event.
