MERANTI FOUNTAIN PEN
This Fountain Pen is constructed from a recycled piece of Meranti with Gold Plated Fittings. The pen is “pillared” so that the cap can be screwed on the back of the pen to extend it for anyone who likes to use a longer pen. The nib has an iridium point.
It comes complete with ink cartridges, a converter so that bottled ink can be used and in a velvet pouch for protection (or black velvet pen box with white and blue interior for an extra charge).
Please be sure to check all the pictures as this is the pen you are buying, and it is ready to post.

This pen can be converted to a Rollerball Pen at no extra charge – just email me to say you want to change

About This Timber Pen
All of my wooden pens are made from recycled, repurposed or sustainable timber. Further information regarding the type of wood this pen is made from will be contained in the information sheet. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Any wood species, that is not listed as being recycled or repurposed comes from sustainable stock and is not listed in the CITES Appendices or on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
Meranti is a flexible wood with a variety of subspecies, and sources. The majority of the Meranti wood species are utilized for replacement doors and windows. It is one of the easiest hardwoods to work with as it easily cuts, machines and sand nicely although the grain cans still sometimes be felt through the finish.
The Sapwood is lighter in colour and distinct from the heartwood which is red-brown darkening to a dark red. Planed surfaces are fairly lustrous with striped figure on radial surfaces. Grey-coloured narrow streaks are often present on all longitudinal surfaces, caused by concentric layers of resin canals. The texture is rather coarse but even, and the grain is interlocked and wavy.
