Squiggly Segmented Wood European Pen

I love the combination of curves on this pen - the curvy cap of the European pen, the convex profile of the wood, and the squiggly segmented pattern combine to great effect. Made from my favorite two north-american woods - the contrast of walnut and maple is hard to beat. Order one of these and you're guaranteed a unique pen - the squiggly pattern is never the same twice. I always buy the Artisan brand pens through Craft Supplies USA, for the best-quality mechanisms and finishes. With the quality components and fine workmanship, this pen will impress, and will provide a satisfying writing experience for years.

Spiral Segmented Wood Cigar Pen

I love this pen! The combination of the hefty cigar pen style, the contrast of the walnut and maple, and the clean lines of the spiral segmented pattern, this pen has MMMMMPPPHHHHH! I just don't know how else to put it. I always say, once you've really given a hand-turned wood pen a chance, you'll never use a plastic disposable pen gladly again. It just makes writing with it a highly enjoyable experience. Don't get me started on the power of the impression you'll make when you pull a pen like this out of your pocket at a business meeting...

Turned Wood Pen and Pencil Set - Beaded Slimline

This Turned Wood Pen and Pencil Set is made from Walnut and Kingwood, and uses 10-k gold components for durability - should keep its original appearance for years of normal use. The components are the Artisan Slimline Beaded Twist Pen and Click Pencil components.

Walnut wood is hard, dense, tight-grained, and polishes to a smooth finish. Cutting it on the lathe is like carving chocolate. It smells kind of sour when cut - I guess that keeps me from wanting to put the shavings on my ice cream... It can vary in color from creamy white sapwood to deep brown heartwood. It's long been a favorite for gun stocks, and also popular for guitar bodies. Kingwood, also called Violetwood or Violete, is from a slender low tree native to Brazil. It is called kingwood because in the 18th and 19th century it was a favorite wood of French kings for their furniture. It is fairly rare, and its fine texture and stability makes it a prized wood for inlay work, wood turning, and fancy accessories.

The Artisan brand components are quality stuff - they work smoothly and feel great in your hand. The set is also available in the standard Slimline look, without the beaded gold components, in 10k gold, 24k gold, or chrome. Sold individually, the pen and pencil would each be sold for $35.00. Buy them together and you can get the set for $55.00.

Turned Wood Pen: Walnut and 24k Gold Artisan Slimline Twist Pen

This Turned Wood Pen: Walnut and 24k Gold Artisan Slimline Twist Pen is the last of my recent experiments with form and function. The reverse-tapered ends give it a nice grip. I thought that maybe the ridges in the middle might make it uncomfortable, but if you picture your fingers gripping the left end, the right end rests against your hand and the middle doesn't touch you. So it looks kind of funky and feels great to hold.

The pen parts are 24k gold plated, and supplied with a Cross style refill that features a premium Swiss-made carbide writing tip for smooth, consistent writing. The pen has a great feel in your hand - balanced and solid. Price as shown: $25.00 Order a matching pencil for a Pen and Pencil Set.

Walnut and 10k Gold Slimline Pen

This Walnut and 10k Gold Slimline Twist Pen is made with the Artisan brand parts, including durable 10k gold plated ring, tip, and clip. The wood is figured black walnut, which I thoroughly enjoy turning. It feels like cutting hard smooth chocolate, and finishes beautifully. Artisan Slimline pens have a nice balanced weight and good quality ink refills so they feel good to write with.

I like making pens. My brother-in-law asked me if they're hard to make. I didn't think so till I explained the procedure to him and he said "whoah." There are a lot of steps, and you need specialized tools to do the job, so it's nice and technical.

Check out Craft Supply or Woodcraft, or Ebay for pen blank materials - there's an amazing selection out there. There are also other pen styles. These are twist pens. There are capped pens, fountian pens, pencils, a whole slew of things available. Email me with what you like and I'll give you a price. For the pen shown, I would charge about $30.00.
