Wooden Fountain Pen - Gidgee Timber - (Classic Style)

The Classic pen range showcases sleek, modern styling with classy fittings and a comfortable, well balanced grip. 

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 recently musical instrument makers have begun using it.

This Classic wooden fountain pen is created by an artisan who hand turns each pen on a lathe in North Brisbane. Using a meticulous thirteen step sanding process and 10 coats of CA we highlight the simple, innate beauty of the hairy oak timber. The natural uniqueness in the woodgrain and timber colour variations, means that each wooden fountain pen we create is one of a kind.

The Classic fountain pen features 24kt gold plating and a tough iridium nib made in Germany. It has a threaded lid that can be effortlessly placed on the end of the pen so it never gets misplaced. The pen comes in a quality, black presentation case, or you can purchase a timber pen box below.

This attractive pen uses easily replaceable, black ink cartridges. The pen comes with one ink cartridge. (click here to buy extra fountain pen refills).  It also features an environmentally friendly piston converter that allows you to refill your pen from bottled ink.
