About the Timber
Ash is a good strong wood with a straight grain. It is a durable and has various uses from the production of sports equipment to cabinet making. The timber is nice to work with and usually a really good finish can be achieved. It is light in colour and can have a lovely orangish grain. It is also often stained to give the appearance a darker wood.
Due to its considerable strength Ash has had a number of uses throughout the ages ranging from making bows and shafts for spears. Today it is used mostly for interior work such as doors, staircases, architraves, skirting and the like. It is particularly good for bespoke kitchens and makes wonderful flooring. Its only drawback is Ash doesn’t have a natural durability for use outside and so needs to be treated beforehand.

Each pen is made using sustainable 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!
