The Squire Pen - Gidgee Timber (Silver Fittings)

    The Squire pen is a writing instrument with a slight nod to a bygone era while retaining modern functionality and charm.

    This pen is created from gidgee timber. Australian gidgee wood is an acacia timber prized for its strength and durability. Gidgee is one of Australia's hardest timbers. The heartwood is a deep, rich brown colour and the outer sapwood is very pale. Gidgee timber has a very fine grain and can be highly figured. The indigenous Kalkadoon people made nulla nulla's, shields, boomerangs, swords and clapsticks from gidgee’s rich, brown wood. It is popular today for knife making, turned bowls, pens and jewellery boxes and musical instruments.

    The handcrafted timber body is a sleek 123 mm, and the cap and tip finials feature low profile diamond texturing known as knurling. The antique silver plated fittings are extremely durable and provide great contrast with the hand lacquered finish. The smooth twist mechanism reveals a Swiss tungsten carbide ball, Parker style refill with West German ink. 

    Every Squire pen receives personal attention from our wood artisans on the wood lathe. Our immaculate attention to detail ensure the innate beauty of the timber is highlighted.

    The Squire pen is presented in a black pen box or you can choose an engrave-able timber box.

    A personalised pen is extra special. Type your engraving along with your font suggestion in the text box provided. We will contact you to confirm your engraving prior to it being laser engraved. Please specify if the pen engraving is for a left or right hander.

    We can wrap it and post it direct. Add the name and address of the receiver in the text box, along with your message and we will gift wrap and send on your behalf. (The package will not include an invoice).

    We are handcrafted Australian timber pen specialists. We would be pleased to design and turn you a bespoke timber pen, pencil or letter opener. You can even supply your own wood that holds precious memories.

    The Squire pen is a unique gift for: your knight in shining armour, people who sit at round tables, medieval scholars, birthdays, graduations, creatives and designers, executive gifts, medieval knights.
