Platinum Gel Ink Pens
All of the pens on this page use the Pilot G2 gel (or) Schmidt ceramic refills. These pens have Platinum fittings(specifically this Rhodium is the hardest member of the Platinum family of metals) They are two-piece pens and the cap is "posting", meaning that it screws on both ends, to prevent loss of the cap. The "screw type" of posting is definitely superior to the "friction" press-on type of posting pens that you may see on some other websites.  I found out early on that the friction caps eventually wear out,so I will not craft them just to save a few dollars.  A pen of this quality typically sells for $120 or more elsewhere!   My price is only $60 unless indicated otherwise.
These are all upgradeable to fountain pens with solid 14k -585 nibs!  See link at the bottom of this page to add the upgrade kit.

Platinum Gel/Rollerball in Bethlehem Holy Land Olive Wood  ITEM #86  ($65)Add to CCNow Cart

Bethlehem Olive Wood is the most beautiful wood I have ever worked with. Each pen is more striking and figured than the one before. Includes a certificate of authentication that the wood came from prunings from trees in Bethlehem (no trees were damaged) - The price of the Bethlehem Olive wood pens is $65.

For Bethlehem Olive Wood, due to the tremendous grain activity - if you want engraving,
I recommend engraving the maple gift box instead of the pen itself.





The following pens are $75, are dyed, double-dyed, spalted, and/or
 stabilized woods,  and also include the free maple gift box.
Sale! All of the stabilized, spalted woods and burls
are now only $65

The following pens are crafted from CELLULOID, a very popular manmade material that has been used since the 1930's to craft some of the finest pens in the world that sell for hundreds of dollars each!   This material is more difficult to work with than any wood, but the finished pen has a mirror-like finish, a brilliant array of colors, and a translucent, iridescent quality.
The rollerballs use the Pilot G2 gel refills (or) Zebra "Orbitz" Archival, Acid-free Gel ink refills. Refills for both types are readily available in your choice of point sizes and ink colors from office supply stores, drugstores, and many other retailers.
I am crafting these pens, with PLATINUM fittings.   Please compare anywhere on the internet with other Platinum Celluloid pens.   Enjoy a great writing experience with custom flair, that will elicit comments from anyone who sees your writing instrument!

Price reduction!  All celluloid rollerballs are now just $75.00

Are you a serious pen collector who will use only high quality fountain pens?   You may choose (and pay for) any of the  CUSTOM WOOD PENS from this page then simply add the fountain pen tip (rollerball upgrade kit) listed here. I'll replace the rollerball tip with the fountain pen tip. Tip will ship "dry" so you will ink it for the first time!  It's only $65 additional, and includes a solid 14k "585" medium nib, a bulk ink pump, and starter "international" type cartridge.  Extra cartridges are available at Staples Office Supply as "Allwrite #8004-32"  
These solid 14k nibs simply glide over the page with no pressure, and are vastly superior to cheaper "Iridium tipped" steel nibs.  They are hand made by a German manufacturer who makes 80% of the 14k nibs used by the major pen manufacturers.  The nib is the most important part of a fountain pen, so it pays to get the very best!

Need Laser Engraving?
 

First, be sure to allow one week for engraving - that's the time it takes the engraving service after I craft the pen.
 It's only $10.00 additional per pen.  Engraving shows up best on light colored woods like the birdseye maple example shown below, or cardinalwood, deer antler, teak or pernambuco.  It will not show up as well on dark woods like cocobolo, Texas ebony, mopani, tambootie, or multi-colored Dymondwood, tru-stone or celluloid, and is not recommended!   For best results on pens, please limit your text to one line of 14 characters maximum, including spaces.   For boxes you may engrave up to two lines of text.  Laser engraved items are not returnable.
 

Be sure to click Item #100 (below) to add engraving to your order (indicate either pen or box)


 LASER ENGRAVING     ITEM #100Add to CCNow Cart

  New for 2006! If you choose a dark wood, Bethlehem Olive Wood, or patterned dymondwood for your pen, you may wish to have the maple gift box engraved, instead of the pen (not both)  Just specify "engrave the box" in the special instructions. 
Here is an example of an engraved maple gift box:
  Again, be sure to add item #100 Laser Engraving (shown above)
