I made this pen in the style of those famous old Magnusson pens from yesteryear. Fans of the Zanerian School and the old writing masters of that era will recognize the sihlouette of the elegant long-handled pens; like one of those long slender cigarette holders that Audrey Hepburn used in “Breakfast At Tiffany’s”. But this is not a replica, it is only inspired by those holders. This is a modern twist on those old designs…first, I put a considerably thicker “grip” section on it. I like a chunky grip, as it gives me more control. Secondly, the “foot” (the black section where the flange is attached) is solid acrylic, for added durability. The design of the “rings” is unique also…this pen is made of exotic “Canarywood”, which is a very light (in weight) wood. I dyed the long handle a dark brown, and left a thick band of the Canarywood in its natural coloring. A unique pen…inspired by the old classic, but with some modern twists.
Unique Oblique Custom Pens are meticulously handmade writing instruments. They are finely crafted, pro-caliber calligraphy pens. This pen will easily and happily handle the rigors of the professional calligrapher. As with all of my handmade calligraphy pens, this one is coated with my super hardshell clear coat (12 coats on this pen). This finish is crystal clear, super hard, will never become sticky or gummy, and is almost impossible to stain. If ink or gouache dries on this finish, you can wipe it off with a damp rag, or for stubborn cases, you can literally scrape it off with your fingernail.
I will happily set up the flange on this pen to accommodate your favorite nib prior to shipping. Please let me know which nib (only one please) that you will use in this pen and I will have it set up and fine-tuned for you when I ship it, so it will write perfectly right out of the box! (Nib is not included with the pen).
This pen will ship to you in a premium presentation/storage case
