The Forester. Not a new design but a new concept, The Forester will only be available in wood and titanium gold plating. For those who love simplicity, it offers the clean look of Euro styling and the elegance of wood. The titanium gold plating is one of the best available, second perhaps only to Rhodium. The body is turned from Zircote, a gorgeous dark wood from Central America, mostly Mexico. Zircote is a beautifully grained wood and is treasured for musical instruments and furniture. This piece was hand turned for this pen and then coated with several layers of cyanoacrylate (CA) to protect the wood and keep the high luster forever. This pen uses a twist mechanism and a smooth writing Cross refill. It measures approximately 7/16 in wide by 5 1/2 inches long. Comes in a grey velour lined gift case. Ships free by USPS Priority Mail.
