Fountainpens
Lately I’ve been receiving a lot of fountain pen orders and I have to say, I really like making them too!
An elite fountain pen made of yew.
And a gentlemens pen made of laburnum.
A birch wooden bowl
This was actually more of an experiment. I had a piece of spalded birch wood and I wanted to make a bowl out of it. It’s not perfect and it’s almost breaking in two because of the holes in the wood, but I really like how it turned out!
An azobé pen
Azobé wood is a very strong very hard-wearing purple-brown wood. It’s used in heavy constructions that have to stay strong under heavy weather conditions like floodgates and poles in the water. After turning it you get a really nice chocolate brown color.
So I made a classica pen out of it.
The pen-holder is made of ash and available on request.
De eerste bestelling van 2012
The first of 2012 was a big one: four fountain pens.
From the left to the right: red acrylic, laburnum, padouk and letterwood.
Winterbreak
Right now my workshop is -1 degrees since we’re having some really cold days here in Holland. So during these very cold days I will not be able to make pens. I hope you understand and I will be back as soon as there’s a workable temperature in there.
