Beautiful Ash Fountain Pen
This Fountain Pen is constructed from a recycled piece of English Ash 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. Also 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 of the pictures as this is the pen you are buying and it is ready to post.

About Your 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. The wood 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.

More Details
Each pen is unique and made using sustainable or recycled timber and top quality components. Once turned and sanded, to give the best possible protection it has a number of coats of finish and then a polish. It comes complete in a pouch, full instructions on the care of the pen. Also a certificate of authenticity, confirming that I have turned the pen personally and 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
