Stunning Mid Range Black Resin Fountain Pen
My mid-range fountain pens are of a higher grade of fittings than standard fountain pen. The pen writes beautifully, is well balanced and of a classic design. This one is made from black resin with black chrome fittings with an accented Centre Ring and Cabochon in Gold Plate that compliments this timber beautifully.
Like a lot of best quality pens the finished pen is not “pillared” so the cap cannot be fixed to the back of the pen. The nib has an iridium point and comes with an ink converter, cartridges and is in a black velveteen pouch (or a Hard Velvet Pen Case as an added extra). Please check all of the pictures as the pen being sold is the one in the picture and ready to post. Please note that wood is a natural material and can have faults which can sometimes be felt even after numerous coats of finish.

How Your Pen Is Constructed
I start by deciding what colours I am going to make the blank and then mixing the resin and adding the pigments to make the colours that I want. It takes two to three hours before the resin is ready to pour.
I now mix these colours together to make a unique blank and then leave it to set for a week
The next move is to select the blank that I want use
After the blank is selected, it is cut to size and then drilled to take the brass tubes that the pen mechanism will be fitted in.
Once the tubes are fitted the blank is then turned on the lathe to the correct size.
The square blank is now turned and shaped.
It is now sanded with very fine sandpaper, the finish is then applied with up to ten coats, being sanded between every one or two coats with 1500 grit to 12000 grit sandpaper
The pen is then assembled and cleaned so that the finished item ready to be dispatched.
