Summary: Brilliant Beginner Set
Comment: This Calligraphy set is truly a complete beginner set. The instructions are clear, the equipment is of high quality, and the projects offer a lot of other things you can do with your equipment.

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent set
Comment: This book contains everything you need to start learning calligraphy. The explanations are clear, the set truly complete (at least, for a beginner), and the project's book quite attractive. The testbook is clear and contains a lot of useful material for technique (i.e., types of ink, brushes, etc.) as well as models for uncial, italic, gothic, and other script styles.

Summary: Tools not for beginners
Comment: I purchased this book as a complete beginner to calligraphy.

The instruction book includes good instructions for forming the letters. The projects in the project book seems interesting. Unfortunately, there are no instructions for using the tools.

I've never used a calligraphy pen before and I could not figure out how to load the ink and get it to write. I tried dipping it in the ink and that didn't work either. I will probably end up going to an art store and buying a different kind of pen.

I purchased this set because I was hoping to get everything I needed to start. If I were to do it over again, I'd buy a different book and purchase pens and ink at a store where they can show me how to use it.
