A hand crafted unique pen

I'm delighted with my pen, which is the first modern ebonite one I own and the only one to incorporate mammoth molar. It is attractively coloured and comfortable to write with, not too heavy. The bi-coloured bock nib is large which suits the diameter of the barrel. The ebonite is smoothly finished and the incorporation of the mammoth molar gives it a hand-finished quality due to the material. The ridges of the layers of molar are just perceptible in places which makes it comfortable to hold.

Purchase from Brad was faultless and my pen was sent by special delivery with an included small gift. It is an unusual pen which I shall use and treasure as something special.
