Lovely Sweet Chestnut Fountain Pen
This is a Beautiful Fountain Pen is made from Sweet Chestnut with Rose Gold Plated fittings. This has resulted in a beautiful pen that one can still see, and feel, of the dinks and faults in the wood.
The finished pen is “pillared” meaning 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 and the pen comes in a black velveteen pouch (or the chance to have a black velvet pen box with white and blue interior as an added extra) and three ink cartridges to get you started. Please make sure that you inspect all of the pictures (click on them to enlarge) as this is the pen that is for sale and the one you will receive.

About Your Timber
English Sweet Chestnut is a hardwood that can 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.
