Brittany’s sentinal is a commissioned piece that I liked so much, I decided to release a limited edition of 150. It features the Orient Point lighthouse of Long Island, New York guiding a wayword vessel home through the crashing waves beneath the light of a full moon and calming storm. The image is is my original artwork, hand-drawn, using a digital pencil that scribes directly into special drawing software. The drawing is then scrimshawed into natrually shed elk antler in a seemless fashion around the entire width of the barrel and cap. Each piece is discretely engraved with the edition number along with my initials, and comes with a certificate of authenticity, hand-signed and embossed with my personal seal. I have framed the piece with the finest rhodium appointments which have black titanium accents. It comes fitted with a medium point, German made nib that accepts an international sized ink cartridge (included) or a piston converter (also included) for using bottled ink. If you prefer a rollerball, please email me at the time of purchase using the contact us option, and I will certainly accomodate your preferance at no additional charge.

 Collector's Muse- Fountain Pen - zebrawood and ebony
This fountain pen is for those who must the very finest.

I make each of these to order, and I will email you photos along the way of your pen being made when you select this collectable pen. I have chosen to use my very finest rhodium and black titanium adronments to accent the wood. The nib has a medium point, is German made, and has an iridium tip for exceptional ink flow.

 Hand crafted Fountain Pen - Amboina Burl
Here is a treasure from down under. This Australian burl is simply magnificent. It is so unique, I had to find just the right way to showcase this wood. I find the understated rhodium casings are perfectly suited to let the natural beauty of the wood stand on it's own. You are looking at a section of the burl where the heartwood and pulpwood intersect. The deeper red is the heartwood section. I promise to ship only the most beautiful pens, but not every pen will have this multi-coloration. If this is a 'must have' for you, please contact me, and I will do my best to accommodate you. The nib is the finest available, and has an irridium tip for an exceptional writing experience. It accepts a standard ink cartridge which is easily found wherever offices supplies are sold.

It comes standard with a German made, medium point nib, which has an iridium tip for exceptional ink flow. It comes with an international sized ink cartridge and a piston type converter should you prefer to use bottled ink. Replacement cartridges are available at most office supply stores.

My supplier works closely with law enforcement officials to ensure that no current existing wildlife, namely the elephant is harmed in any way. I keep NO ivory on hand. This is custom order, so please allow two-three weeks for shipment.

 Hand Crafted Fountain Pen - Thuya burl
THUYA BURL is the pinicle of desire and luxury. Coming from Morocco, this wood is a rich caramel color with swirling grain and tiny knots known as eyes. I have just received notice that this wood will no longer be exported in the raw from Morocco in order to conserve it for local artisans. Only that which is already in the U.S. will be available. This is by far the most difficult of woods to work as it is very oily and prone to shatter on the lathe. I have chosen to use rhodium hardware with black titanium accents to frame this unique wood. The nib has a medium point, is German made, and has an iridium tip for exceptional ink flow. Each pen comes with a piston converter and an international size ink cartridge.

 Hand crafted Fountain Pen - Rosewood burl
Rosewood burl trancends beauty into the realm of indescribable luxury. This is wood is the result of a natural defect in the tree, which was generally discarded until a curious woodworker discovered the true potential of this wasted treasure. It has since become the holy grail to wood workers. I only have enough left to make about 50 more pens, and they are going very fast. The yellowish wood you see below is the pulpwood, whereas the deep reddish brown is the heartwood. Not every pen will have pulpwood, but I promise to never ship anything less than the very finest. If you specifically want this contrast, please email me from the contact form, and I will do my best to accommodate you. Finding more quality rosewood burl is simply impossible. Combine with the finest of rhodium and black titanium components, this hand made fountain pen stands above all others. The nib is German made and has an irridium tip for exceptional ink flow. If you prefer a solid 18K gold nib, please select the large solid 18k gold nib at the bottom of this page. Great care has been taken to ensure perfect balance without the cap posting to the end.

 Hand Made Fountain Pen - Curly Mahogany
While mahogany is fairly common in fine furniture, curly mahogany is a very unusual find. This exotic wood comes from central East Africa and usually grows with straight, subtle grain patterns. Trauma or abnormal growth causes the wood to curl as it grows resulting in spectacular brilliance once the wood is polished. I have chosen to use the finest rhodium fittings with black titanium accents to compliment the beauty of the wood. I use only the most exceptional nibs to ensure the best writing experience available. The cap is not meant to be posted on the barrel while writing. Each fountain pen comes with one ink cartridge and a piston type converter should you prefer specialty inks. Refills are available from most major office supply retailers.
