Item Description

Bet you never thought you would find a pen with such an adorable min-ellie on it! This is a modern yet elegant Carbara twist pen with 24kt gold-plate hardware. It measures about 12.5 cm (just under 5") and you simply twist it towards you to open and away to retract it. The body of the pen is acrylic with a tiny grey elephant that has been scrolled and embedded into a cream background with beautiful flecks and swirls of metallic copper and green.  The elephant was embellished with outlining details that were hand carved and painted. It was polished with carnuba wax which is extremely durable. It comes in its own velveteen drawstring pouch. It was hand-crafted, carved and polished on a lathe by John Baker and Sylvie Malenfant and donated to the auction to help bring the Mendoza4 home.

The pen comes with an unmarked black ink cartridge but takes easily obtained Parker Style Ball Point, Gel Ink or Schmidt Easy Flow 9000 refills.
