Segmented Wood Americana Roller Ball Pen and Letter Opener Set

This hand-turned segmented Americana roller-ball pen and letter opener desk set is made from classic Americana style components. 10-K gold plated for durability and class, and with a checkered, diagonally-cut segmented pattern that makes the set one-of-a-kind. This set is made from padauk (the red wood) and maple (tan), with blackwood diagonal pieces. Most any of the other woods I show on my website could also be used.

The technique involved in assembling the wood pieces is involved, which raises the cost, and the uniqueness, of the piece over solid-piece pens. Order this set or a similar set for $115.00. Individually, this style of pen is $65.00, letter opener $60.00.

Spiral Segmented Pen - Blackwood and Yellowheart Slimline

I've recently started trying my hand at segmented wood pens. Each is a one-of-a kind creation, and striking to hold. This pen is made from Pao Amarello, or yellowheart, and African blackwood, using Artisan Slimline parts that are plated with black chrome. The twist mechanism is smooth, the finish is shiny, and I really like how the colors go together - one of my favorite pens to date.

Price for this pen, or similar segmented Slimline: $50.00

Hand-Turned Wood Pen - African Blackwood and 24k Gold Rollerball

Hand-turned from African Blackwood, this is an Artisan rollerball pen with 24k gold finish. Blackwood is a small tree attaining a height of 45', trunk diameter rarely more than 14". Heartwood is dark brown with predominant black lines which give an almost black appearance. Sapwood is pale yellow, giving pleasant contrast. The grain may be straight or irregular, extremely fine texture. Dries slowly with a slight tendancy to check. Used extensively for woodwind instruments, giving one of the best tones. Turns well, often used for carving. Capable of an excellent finish.

These Artisan Rollerball pens are cool - there's a spring inside to keep the writing pressure on the tip optimized for comfort and clean writing. This pen, or one like it, is available for $45.00, $55.00 for the same thing with fountain pen components instead of rollerball.
