Item Description
This Professor pen combines both modern and rustic elements. Its form is relatively simple, without much ornamentation, but is made unique by the cross-hatched detailing at both ends. The rustic antique bronze finish of the hardware is juxtaposed with the modern "Gunmetal Swirl" acrylic body. It consists of a black/grey nacreous reflective base within which are beautiful swirls of metallic bronze with red highlights. It's quite spectacular and difficult to capture in the pictures. Perfect for the serious 'professor' who likes to jazz it up a little! It was hand turned and polished on the lathe by the artist to help Wildlife SOS generate funds. The body is finished with durable and hard carnuba wax. It is a twist pen which opens when you twist away and retracts with a twist towards you. It measures 12.5 cm or just under 5 inches and comes in its own velveteen drawstring pouch. Why not give a loved one a unique gift chosen just for their personality and hand made with love and skill?
The pen comes with an unmarked black ink cartridge but takes easily obtained Parker Style Ball Point or Gel Ink refills.
Item Special Note
The pens for the Wildlife SOS auction were designed and made by John Baker (mostly) and Sylvie Malenfant. They are both passionate about animal welfare and elephants in particular, recognizing that their exotic nature and size leads to their exploitation and untold suffering in captivity at the hands of humans. Wildlife SOS has done so much to help relieve their plight by providing a refuge where they can heal both emotionally and physically. Their hope is that these pens will help contribute a 'small piece of the pie' necessary for Wildlife SOS to continue with their amazing work on behalf of elephants, bears and any other animals in distress with their 24hr emergency response service.
