2. Personalized Stationery: Get him a set of personalized stationery with his initials or name beautifully written in calligraphy. This will not only encourage him to practice but also provide him with a unique and stylish way to correspond with others.

3. Calligraphy Classes or Workshop: Consider enrolling him in a calligraphy class or workshop. This will provide him with professional guidance, techniques, and the opportunity to interact with other calligraphy enthusiasts. Look for local classes or online platforms that offer calligraphy courses tailored to his skill level.

This gift will serve as a valuable resource for his learning journey and inspire him with new ideas.

5. Practice Journals: A high-quality calligraphy practice journal can be a practical and thoughtful gift. These specialized journals have grid papers that are ideal for practicing different letterforms and layouts. Your boyfriend can use them to track his progress, experiment with new styles, and jot down inspiration.

6. Calligraphy Workshops or Retreats: If you are looking for a grand gesture, consider surprising your boyfriend with a calligraphy workshop or retreat. These events often include professional calligraphers as instructors, hands-on practice sessions, and the chance to connect with other artists.
