Aristo Flexible Curve — 30, 40 & 50cm

An Aristo Flexible Curve is a bendable ruler that holds whatever shape you give it. Bend it to follow a contour, and it stays there while you draw along it — the simplest way to draw smooth, repeatable curves that no fixed template can match.

"The Nib Safety Net" – Terms & Conditions

Eligibility: This benefit is exclusive to active members of the Creative Rewards program at the time of the accident.
Coverage: The 50% discount applies strictly to accidental damage (e.g., dropping the pen) that renders the nib unusable. It does not cover intentional damage, loss of the pen, theft, or normal wear and tear.
The Claim: To activate your discount, you must provide a clear photo of the damaged nib and your original order number to oops@yourstore.com.
Limitations: This discount is valid for a one-time replacement per pen purchased and applies only to the cost of the replacement nib unit. It cannot be combined with other promotional codes or used for full pen replacements.
Availability: We will provide the discount for the exact nib model where stock is available. If the model is discontinued, we will offer a 50% discount on a comparable alternative nib unit.

Long curves in one stroke

Speed lines, roads, rivers, horizon arcs and long stems are hard to ink freehand without a wobble. Bend the curve to your pencil line, press it flat, and draw the whole length in one confident stroke.

Curves that fixed templates cannot draw

French curves cover a set of fixed shapes; a flexible curve can be any shape at all. Bend it to match a pencil guideline, hold it down, and ink a smooth curve in one stroke. It can also copy a curve from one drawing to another.

Honest Note:

A flexible curve cannot make tight bends — for small radii, use French curves or a circle template. It will not hold a perfectly sharp corner, and it can shift if you press hard, so hold it firmly while drawing.

Who is it For?

• Comic artists drawing speed lines, vehicles and architecture
• Designers and pattern cutters
• Botanical illustrators drawing long stems and leaves
• Anyone who needs a smooth curve drawn the same way twice
