Quilted Maple Fountain Pen
One of my best Pen customer's commissioned a fountain pen for her husbands 60th birthday. As happy as I was to accept the commission, it was nice to work without reservation on the style and wood. My only direction was to use a lighter wood. This particular Pen is known as a Majestic. The Majestic is currently one of the highest levels of pen for custom wood hardware. Depending on finish, wood and particular design, these pens run between $175 and $250. The wood in this case is quilted maple from northern Quebec. I received it from mon ami Yves Laurent, who lives in Montreal, but has a chalet on a mountain lake. I have enough for one more pen.
