- The bamboo calligraphy pen is one of the oldest tools of calligraphy in the world. More than a millennium ago, Arabic calligraphers found bamboo to be the ideal tool for a wide variety of calligraphic works, both large- and small-scale.
- This tradition began in Iraq, but later spread to the rest of the Islamic world.
- Bamboo’s hard edge allows the calligrapher to perform the full spectrum of pen movements, but bamboo also has a suppleness and flexibility that is crucial for Arabic and Islamic calligraphy.
- Our bamboo is the flat-sided species of bamboo preferred by calligraphers for generations. This species is both entirely different from the standard full-round bamboo and not available for sale here in America. We import it specifically for calligraphy.
