A truly unique one of a kind writing instrument
This Homerton Handmade Fountain pen is made from Spalted Beech.
Spalting is the colouration to the wood caused by Fungi, this is creates the black lines and patterns.
Fully lined with resin called "Immaculate Constellation" the same material is used for all threads and the section. makes a nice surprise when you uncap the pen.
This pen is one of a kind, completely hand turned.
The pen is fitted with a pretty steel Medium Cypress Nib, I can also supply the nibs in Extra Fine, Fine, Medium and Broad.
The pen can also take a Bock nib, in Bi-Colour, Polished steel or Gold plated. These are available in Extra Fine, Fine, Medium, Broad and Extra Broad.
The refilling system is a Schmidt K5 premium ink convertor, but can also utilise a standard international cartridge.
