The quill is very nice and pretty. My daughter had been wanting a set since 3rd grade. We waited until 6th grade. Still too young, she spilled the ink within 30 minutes of opening it! Our fault for not monitoring. Advice: nice set if you are looking for one, ink is permanent so be warned!

This is a very great quill and i love writing with it, the is a very good quality and doesn't fade from my cotton paper even after being dipped in water, you're better off trying to find it somewhere else though i just bought this for about seventeen dollars at a barnes &noble store
Best Deals for Quill & Ink Set
I purchased this for a friend's birthday. It is a very good quality quill and the ink is nice as well. However, on the reverse side of the packaging, it shows a box price of around $16.00 USD. This is nearly half of the price on Amazon, and nearly 1/5 the price some of the Used & New listings on here. Be aware of the price discrepancy and either bite the bullet for convenience sake, (which is one hell of a convenience, don't get me wrong) or embark on a quest to find this same set for cheaper.
Honest reviews on Quill & Ink Set
I love this set and have used it quite a bit the ink is just the right thickness to flow smootly evenly and if you like the feel of writing with a quill pen on cotton paper you will love this the only issue is the price you can get this pen and quill set for a 1/4 of the price listed here at another retailer and yes this is retail price too. I bought mine for 18.00 yes the same exact thing and was shocked to see the cost here. Everything is the same pen ink packaging and vendor. Pays to shop around. The retailer I purchased it from a store in the town square in Williamsburg. I checked the store online and they list it for the price I purchased it for. Its a great gift for some one like me who loves calligraphy and who just loves to write on quality paper with a quality pen and ink. It was a little treat to myself. I did not open it for months until I got much better at calligraphy. You will enjoy it and I dont recommend it for kids it is an adult gift unless the child is extremely careful and its not done near carpeting on on a bed any material that can stain. I also purchased real quill pens the original and used the dipping ink and wrote on cotton paper it gives you a feel for what our ancestors wrote with and brings you a little closer to our American heritage was so happy that I bought it and when I return to Williamsbug I am going to purchase a few more the ink is indigo I believe but looks son beatiful on the paper its lighter on paper than it looks in the bottle. great gift for a soon to be lawyer, artist, historian, teacher, writer, and good for even some one who has never tried calligraphy or writing you will open up a whole new world to anyone who has not tried it.
