NOW SOLD

Oak and Chrome Ballpoint Twist Pen



EUROPEAN OAK - Quercus robur

Usually straight-grained, the heartwood of European Oak varies in colour from light tan to brown. Quarter-sawn pieces show attractive flame figuring. The wood is fairly hard, heavy and dense, clean but with the occasional knot.  European Oak is a beautiful timber and with an oil finish, the grain will turn a deep golden brown.

This pen was turned on July 11th just past Sale. It would be the last airing for the lathe for a while as we were headed into central Manchester and then on to Poole in Dorset to see our daughter for her birthday.
