Wooden Phoenix Pen (Silky Oak Timber: Antique Pewter Fittings)

    The Phoenix pen is a very unique pen with the antique pewter fittings fully capturing the myth of the phoenix in great detail. Flames are depicted at the tip of the pen, the phoenix bird is shown rising from the ashes and the clip details the majestic tail of the phoenix. An amber crystal on the clip and cap add to the beauty and mystery of this regal firebird.

    The phoenix bird was recently popularised by the Harry Potter books and films. It is a sacred firebird said to have spectacular feathers of gold and red. Its story has roots in many ancient civilizations- most notably the Egyptian and Greek. After 1,000 years the phoenix builds itself a nest of twigs and branches, which then burns fiercely until they are both ashes. From the ashes a young phoenix appears, renewing the life cycle of the bird and making the phoenix virtually immortal and invincible. This pen is particularly meaningful to those who have been through difficult times and triumphed. It is a poignant symbol of restoration.

    This Phoenix pen is made from Australian silky oak timber. Silky oak is a light, honey-coloured to medium reddish brown native Australian timber, it is highly figured and has a very distinctive grain. It is highly prized for furniture making and wood turning due to its beautiful woodgrain and colour.

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

    The Phoenix pen is a solid, medium plus weight pen (65g) with a silent, smooth twist mechanism and features a black ink Parker style refill. You can purchase quality Parker style refills below.

     The pen comes in a quality, black presentation case or you can purchase an engrave-able timber box below.
