Sweet Chestnut Rollerball Pen- About The Timber
English Sweet Chestnut is a hardwood that very closely resembles Oak and has been sometimes referred to as being “Poor Man’s Oak”, although when it is dry it has a creamier colour. It has many of the characteristics of Oak with a straight grain and strength.
The grain pattern is actually a real feature, it is open, fairly coarse, making it ideal for wide expanses on tables or worktops. It also has a fairly dense grain and with a good Tannin content it has inherent durability, great for outdoor tables and chairs.
Each pen is unique and made using sustainable, reclaimed or recycled timber and top quality components. Once turned and sanded, to give the best possible protection it has up to ten coats of finish and then a polish. It comes complete in a velvet sleeve, full instructions on the care of the pen and a certificate of authenticity, confirming that I have turned the pen personally and in most cases the date it was constructed.
This pen is constructed from timber. Being a natural material each piece is unique in colour and figuring, which will slightly change colour and darken in time. The pen may be smooth to the touch or you may be able to feel the grain, blemishes and faults in the wood under the finish. Pens that are really smooth, with no blemishes are made of plastic!
