Full description

This handsome twist-pen is hand made from a piece of yew wood. The wood came from a 400 year old tree that was felled because it had become dangerous after a lighting strike 10 years ago. The colours within yew can vary between deep red-brown or black to a light tan, but the wood I used for this pen has a dark tan and near black grain. I turned the two barrels to form a “double-cone”, with the narrow tapers set to the centre, top and tip. The widest part of the “cones” are set to the middle of each half of the two-piece pen giving it an usual appearance with simple, elegant lines. The twist mechanism is held within the centre of the pen, and the two halves are rotated to propel the writing nib which has a black ink refill. The metal tip, centre-band and top finial have a satin-chrome finish and the clip has a faded copper finish to compliment the wood. The pen uses a Cross refill, widely available from any stationers store. To change the refill, you simply pull the two halves of the pen apart and unscrew the refill - there are no springs to loose with this pen.

Designed by Brian Case in the Orkney Islands
