50 Times People Found Some Truly Perfect Handwriting Examples That Were Too Good Not To Share
One of the biggest casualties of the digital age has been the fine skill of handwriting, and the opportunities to show off one's artsy and satisfyingly precise script are diminishing every day. When was the last time you picked up a pen?
While calligraphy continues to flourish in the forms of wedding and event invitations, fontand typography design, having perfect handwriting doesn't really get you that much social cred anymore. Luckily, for those who are blessed with natural talent or have worked hard on their penmanship, there are places on the internet where you are still appreciated! The subreddit penmanshipporn has long been such a place, where scribes come together to share and celebrate the aesthetic value of their beautiful handwriting.
Following on from a previous post, we here at Bored Panda have compiled a list of satisfyingly neat and creative handwriting examples for your viewing pleasure. Scroll down below to check them out for yourself, and let us know which hand lettering you've found the most aesthetically pleasing!

So, there's font like this? By her handwriting? It's so NOT fair that they didn't mention anything about it.

This is the handwriting of Nepalese Yr 8 student Prakriti Malla which was recognised as the most beautiful handwriting in the world. Prakriti Malla is a class eight scholar and she is now global well-known due to her handwriting. a few months in the past, someone from Nepal posted a picture of her handwriting on social media and, very quickly, the whole world became speaking about her. rakriti Malla’s handwriting looks as if a font instantly from the computer. the gap among the letters is uniform. furthermore, she has introduced a new stage of calligraphy. Even professionals say that her writing could be very near being ideal and that is the motive why her handwriting changed into selected as the nice handwriting in Nepal.

This handwriting is a form of "D'Nealian" - which is an easy way to teach "manuscript"(printing) which has "curved" lettering rather than block(straight lines). Young children will intrinsically draw an arc or curved line instead of a straight one. Once D'Nealian manuscript is mastered, it is simple to connect the letters by adding curves or loops to transition to Cursive. My children learned D'Nealian in elementary school. So - why did we change?

I’m guessing she took her time for this paper/essay with the more traditional handwriting from the time before printers: when the monks etc. would write the books by hand. I don’t tink she writes like this all the time. It’s just a guess though, my appologies to her if this beautiful and disciplined handwriting is her actual every-day handwriting.

Love every one of these. Such artistic skill. i'm wondering if we should have a display of really bad writing. I'd win that one. When I was teaching, my students had trouble understanding the comments i wrote on their papers and sometimes when they asked, I couldn't read them either.
Molly Block 7 years ago
That is beautiful handwriting, and I am envious of this skill! It's truly beautiful. I think I found a spelling error in the 2nd paragraph, the last line. Not sure--and I'm NOT trying to be a spelling nazi, but I was a proof-reader in my last job and I cannot help but notice errors, sometimes. Apologies if I am wrong--and I truly hope I AM wrong! Or I just made a big fool and a** out of myself. I still want to learn to have amazing handwriting like this, but in this day and age, I don't really use much pen/pencil and paper anymore. It's all about typing things now.... handwriting might be a skill that we lose in the future. Let's hope not!

Once, whilst travelling in Italy and visiting countless wonders of art and architecture, I got sick and tired of the appalling graffiti in all the toilets (I was hosteling and camping) so I drew a large, detailed image of a statue from the Trevi fountain holding a bottle of Smirnoff vodka and wrote 'Inter Rail and Smirnoff leave me breathless'. It would have washed off had anyone ever bothered, but I just thought the city deserved a better class of vandalism :-)

CbusResident 7 years ago
Nice work you fine calligraphers out there, but for some of us this is a far more difficult art than others. So to say that a difficult handwriting assessment ought to be mandatory in schools is unreasonable given how relevant having pretty handwriting is in the modern world. The requirement should simply be legibility, not that you become one of these Picassos of the pen. We don't require short kids to become killers at basketball and football in school. We don't require big people to prove themselves as able jockeys. Don't make those of us who's penmanship is legible but slatternly force our words to meet the lofty aesthetic glory of these soaring scribes.

Wow I wish I could write like some of theses, I wrote my z's backwards until last year.

The ones of elderly and foreigners I'm not surprised about. My mother (ukrainian immigrant) did elementary under strict handwriting rules. Marks would be taken off if your name was more than a centimeter tall. Neatness was necessary not to fail. And yet...my handwriting is...and I quote, "chicken scratches"

Awesome and something to aspire too. Typing so much my handwriting looks godawful now.

This is probably one of the top ten most satisfying posts on Bored Panda. And, guys, don't worry if you've got messy handwriting. Apparently, you've got ideas that you want to get out quickly.

I was originally a lefty, but I was made to write with my right hand and my writing is chicken scratch to this day! I wonder if any of these fine writers are left handed?

Check out John DeCollibus on YouTube. Or hell, read about the penman J. C. Ryan. He did amazing things without hands.

Back when the things we had to occupy us, not to mention many were expected of us, were quite different, such as reading, quilting, cross stitch, "practicing your letters" was one of them.

I had to quit after two pages. My hand was cramping just looking at them.

All handwritten but not all are handwriting. Calligraphy is different from handwriting ^^

The thing is, how long did it take to write so neatly? I can write pretty well but it will take me twice as long to finish a sentence.

Nice work you fine calligraphers out there, but for some of us this is a far more difficult art than others. So to say that a difficult handwriting assessment ought to be mandatory in schools is unreasonable given how relevant having pretty handwriting is in the modern world. The requirement should simply be legibility, not that you become one of these Picassos of the pen. We don't require short kids to become killers at basketball and football in school. We don't require big people to prove themselves as able jockeys. Don't make those of us who's penmanship is legible but slatternly force our words to meet the lofty aesthetic glory of these soaring scribes.

I wonder how long it took for these. Especially the school notes. My handwriting is awful but it's because i have to write notes quickly to keep up with the teacher

My question on some of these is, do they write like this on a regular basis? And if so, can they do it effortlessly or do they need to take a long time?

I'm going to buy a pen and watch YouTube videos on handwriting right now.
