Customer Reviews
Loved it, learning to cut the quills was a challenge but was still fun, the paper is of fine quality (but I cut an inch off the side ro closer resemble period sizes) and takes ink and wax well.
The ink-well is functional, and keeps the ink liquid for weeks on end, and the seal works well (though I prefered to use the memento mori ring)
I cannot for the life of me cut these quills.
This is a great kit and will serve me well as a administration private with my unit.
I bought this set with the intention of sending letters to my family. Now it’s easy to just grab any old pen and piece of paper, but I wanted to make the experience much more personal and put myself in the shoes of the past. This set does just that. All the items that you receive are top notch in quality and have a bit of personality to them. They really make you feel as if you’re writing in the days long since passed.
After watching all of the videos Townsends has to offer on 18th century writing I knew I had to be apart of it somehow. Buying this set was a way for me to connect with my family and with the past all in one bundle.
I would 10/10 recommend this to anyone.
Thank you to everyone at Townsends who make history fun to learn about and participate in!
As usual, Jas Townsend does it again! I'm really happy that I purchased this set. What a really great item because it helps me as a historical interpreter. Thanks Townsend for a really fantastic item. All of the items work really well. Fantastic combination and I would recommend it to other reenactors as well!
