Broad Edge Pen Calligraphy / Celestory
« on: March 12, 2024, 06:04:48 AM »
This handwriting is based on the Gothic Blackletter font called Celestory.
I find it interesting that this started out as a handwritten style which was converted into a font, and is now being copied as a handwritten style. It's gone full circle!
This is followed by the full alphabet.

I always load the ink into the reservoir with a brush.

Thank you
It was written with a Mitchell square-edged nib with Rotring Ink.
I loaded the nib each time with just enough ink for a couple of lines and just before the ink ran out I added the next colour, and so on with all the colours.
The technique is a bit hit-and-miss but it does work.  ;)

This is a page in a substantial family history record. I wrote it in two columns per page as I find it easier to read, and quite attractive to look at.
