Parrish penworks handcrafts custom fountain pens in the united states. I personally shape and polish every pen, one at a time, in my small shop in northern virginia.
Because each pen is crafted from custom small-batch materials, and the pens are hand shaped and carefully polished by hand, each is a unique work of art, and no two pens will ever be alike. The process creates a quality one-of-a-kind writing instrument to be enjoyed for years to come. My hope is that you will enjoy this product as much as i enjoyed making it.
This pen pictured is the actual pen you will receive. Due to variations in monitors, the actual colors may vary from what you see. The vibrance and depth of the materials are hard to capture in any photograph and must be seen in person to be truly appreciated. This is truly a handmade pen, with each component designed, cut, shaped, and polished by me. The only "off-the-shelf" components are the jowo nib unit and the schmidt converter. It is a one-of-a-kind writing instrument. Cap: m14 triple start threads. Material: black allumilite and blue ice kirinite.
