Large Designer Pens |
The pens pictured on this page I call a large designer pen. Like my slim pens I make them from exotic and domestic hard woods. These pens are a super solid double twist pen. They are great for people that have arthritis or corporal tunnel, because of their larger 5/8 inch diameter. These use the "parker Style" refill and come standard with black color ink in them. To purchase, please see my "about me" page. I have a hard time keeping these in my stock. My customers love these. Price $25.00 each for hard woods pens $25.00 each for the striped processed wood pens I can make pencils in this style pen, however I do not keep the pencils premade and on hand. A pencil made in this style uses a .5mm lead. I do not have the ability as for right now to make them in a larger size lead. |
Australian Rose Myrtle wood. The camera made the color a little redder that it actually is. Its more pink than red. It even has a curly iridescent cross grain color. This is very hard to get wood because Australia is tightening up their exporting of the woods. I have 1 in stock and can make a few more. |
Black Palm wood. This is the coconut trees that you see in the cartoons when a coconut falls out of the tree and thunks the character on the head. It had a very contrasting grain, light brown main color with a jet black streaking grain. I have a few pieces of Black Palm left. Also I do have a few pieces of Red Palm which looks just like this one except the black streaks are a deep maroon color. |
Bocote wood from southern Mexico and South America. A very popular wood for my customers because of the distinct medium and dark brown grain. A very elegant looking pen. I have one and can make more. |
This one is called Butternut. It grows rather well through out the United States. It has a carmel color which usually darkens in time. I have 1 and unfortunately no wood to make more. I can get more. |
Chechen wood. This is a South American wood with a Also has a woven like micro grain which makes it look really fancy. I have one and will make more. |
Perhaps my most favorite wood. Cocobolo wood from Mexico and South American There is a very deep reddish brown base color with dark streaks. Similar to Bocote but with deep reddish brown. I have wood to make more. |
Curly Padauk a wood that comes from Africa. It has a medium dark brown color with a strong red tint. It also has a "perpendicular" iridescent cross grain. Hence the term "curly". I do not have any Curly Padauk left but I have normal Padauk which just doesn't have the iridescent cross grain which is also very beautiful. |
Flowering Crab. This came from a tree that grew up in my front yard. I don't believe that it is a very rare wood but it is very beautiful light brown color with just a hint of red in it. There is a small crack in it from the knot I intentionally made in it. It has been filled with epoxy and won't crack farther. Adds a lot of character to the pen. I have 2. |
Hawaiian KOA wood. A very rare wood grows only in Hawaii. There is a impostor wood called Kemp wood that grows in other countries and is used for hardwood floors. True KOA wood is so expensive that very few people could afford to do a floor with it. I do not at this time have any Koa, however don't hesitate to ask me. |
Iron wood. The name fits it well it cuts like iron. A very hard wood grows very scarcely in the United States. Its color is a dark chocolate brown. I have this one and can make some more. |
This is Mahogany. Not extremely rare wood but very sought after by furniture makers. Will darken to a very rich brown color. I have this one and will make more. |
Maple root burl. This is one of the most popular pens I make so much so that I don't have one on hand. I do have some wood to make you one and would be very happy to do so. |
Here we have a super rare wood called African Olie Pod. I have this one and only a few pieces to make more. This wood is so beautiful it makes me laugh at the evolution theory. Theres just no way for wood this gorgeous to have evolved. |
This wood is known as Quinta wood from South America. It has a medium to medium dark brown color and is very hard solid wood. |
I made this pen from a request from a friend whom was having troubles holding and writing with pens due to arthritis. The lower half is made twice as big in diameter. It is made of Walunt wood. |
This pen is so neat looking that I had to take 2 photos of it. It is called LSL Wood. Ya thats right Laminated Strand Lumber, the very same wood used in the construction industry for header boards over doors and windows. Sometimes I'm told its used for floor joists. It can be made in Gold tips, Copper Tips, Chrome Tips, and Black Tips. I currently have this one shown in the pictures. I can make more in any of the fore mentioned tip colors. Price is $25.00 plus Shipping. |
I will be adding more pens to this page. If you would like a certain type of wood please feel free to email me and ask. |
