Sitting at my desk I pulled the fancy nib holder toward myself and opened it to select the nib I wanted to use with my current fountain pen. My parents gave the fancy box to me for my college graduation since they knew I liked to do my writing by hand and had started to collect fountain pens and nibs. The nibs were easy to lose so a holder was a necessary item and they had taken the time to find one that showed off my love of writing.
I also had a real quill made with a feather. Although I loved using it, it required me to refill the nib every few words to keep the ink flowing. My fountain pens lasted much longer and so I used them more often. I had numerous nibs for both pens and the box came in handy as a holder so I wouldn’t lose any.

I guess quills were dipped in ink, not filled.

Yes I believe they were dipped in bottles of ink.
