Higdon Writing Instruments are constructed from finest wood and like anything created from natural materials, must be properly cared for.
Do not expose to extreme temperatures or moisture. Do not leave your pen in a car.
Higdon Writing Instruments have a durable finish that with proper use and care will retain their beauty. Do not use any cleaners or solvents that may damage the finish. A light wax designed for wood is fine to restore luster.
To replace cartridges unscrew assembly carefully and pull apart. The type of replacement cartridge for your pen is listed with your limited edition number.
If your pen has a removable cap, when replacing cap place lightly on body and turn carefully to assure threads are aligned properly.
Fountain Pen Care
Higdon Writing Instruments fountain pens should be cared for like any other fine fountain pen.
Periodically flushing nib with cool water will help keep dried ink from interfering with ink flow. Do not use hot water or solvents to clean nib.
Only use inks designed especially for fountain pens.
When choosing to soak the nib in cool water for cleaning, remove nib assembly from pen. Do not soak any other part of the pen as it will cause damage.
Do not press too firmly when writing as this will damage nib.
Your fountain pen nibs will adjust to your style of writing, so do not share your pen with others, especially someone opposite-handed from you.
