Handmade Huon-pine ballpoint pen
I made this pen from Huon Pine (Lagarostrobos franklinii) sustainably sourced from the Huon Valley in Tasmania's cold southern districts where the trees can reach 2500 years old. Unlike common pines (Radiata for instance), Huon Pine does not start to reproduce until the tree is between 600 and 800 years old and is the only remaining member of the Lagarostrobos species. The wood is extremely rot resistant and harvesting is generally by way deals of salvaging fallen trees.
Features:
- Body and cap hand turned from sustainably sourced Huon Pine
- Wood grain has cream background with beautiful golden waves of color and birds eye knots
- Gold tone metal parts complement the beauty of the Huon Pine woodgrain
- Cap top is silver tone metal with embossed pattern
- Larger pen with a good heft and feel
