Anotations

Scope note:

Pens made from the stalks of marsh reeds, papyrus plants, sedge, or bamboo. The pen stores a reservoir of ink in its hollow interior. The end is carved into a tip or split tip. The stroke of the reed pen is characteristically bold and hard, variation achieved with the application of weaker or stronger pressure.
