Growth Rings Fumed × Black Birch

This is handmade glass dip pen. It is the first of what will be a series in a series with the back fume pattern. The glass nib has eight channels for the ink to fill, so you are able to write for quite a long time before needing to dip it again.

I have decided to go with a more contemporary design. The main reason is that I have always liked the feel of the Mont Blanc style of pen and decided to try it in glass. After the first one that I made, I realized that not only was the shape comfortable to hold, but was also a pleasure to write or draw with. And that is due to the extra weight. So you don't need to press down on the paper at all.

Here is some information about the pen. It is made with borosilicate glass and fumed with 24kt gold and 99.99 fine silver. Since the color on the pen is translucent, the color will change depending on the background. The grips are encased colored glass.

Dimensions: Approximately 15cm long 12mm diameter 0.6mm line

This is currently a one off, and already has a nib of .5mm. Please let me know if you want it changed. I can also chang it to an artist nib upon request.

PLEASE leave me a note if you want a different size nib and the size in mm.

Breakages: If you break the nib of the pen in anyway for any reason please feel free to send it back to me to be repaired for no charge. You only need to pay for the shipping cost. And yes this is anytime you break the nib. THIS ONLY APPLIES TO THE NIB. If you need to have to rest of the pen repaired please contact me and we can work out the cost of a repair.
