Multicoloured Fountain Pen

This Stunning Fountain Pen is constructed from Multicoloured Resin with Gold Plated Fittings. The pen is “pillared” so that the cap can be screwed on the back of the pen. This is ideal for anyone who likes to use a longer pen.

The nib has an iridium point. It comes complete with a black velveteen pen pouch or the option to purchase a Hard Velvet Pen Case. This pen has been made and is ready to post. Each pen blank is made by myself, giving a fantastic and original pen blank. Producing these pen blanks is a long process and can take up to a week to make each one

Please make sure that you inspect all of the pictures as this is the pen that is for sale and the one you will receive.

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.
If there is more than one colour 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
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
