Full description

Handmade by the shop owner in his home workshop. Elevate your writing experience with a unique blend of modern design and timeless tradition. This handcrafted fountain pen is a true statement piece, perfect for anyone who appreciates quality and history. The fittings are in Gold Plating and this is the actual pen you will receive. Takes standard international cartridge (1 included) a standard ink filler for bottled ink (included).

The body of this pen is hand turned by me from genuine Cocobolo wood, a tropical hardwood of the Dalbergia genus, known as one of the most beautiful and prized of the true rosewoods.

A History of Rarity and Value:

Hailing from the dry forests of Central America, primarily Panama, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua, Cocobolo has a history as a highly valued material. Its density so high that it will often sink in water made it a coveted wood for fine work. For over a century, it has been a top choice for luxury items like fine cutlery handles, musical instruments (especially guitars, oboes, and clarinets), and intricate inlay work. Its slow growth and popularity have led to heavy exploitation over time, making large pieces extremely rare today. As a result, Cocobolo is now listed as a CITES Appendix II species, which regulates its trade to ensure its survival. Owning a piece of Cocobolo is truly owning a piece of the tropical rainforest's natural, protected heritage. Velvet carry pouch included.
