Sierra Wooden Pen - Spalted Silky Oak

    The Sierra is our signature range, a definitive, functional and popular writing instrument.

    This pen is made from spalted silky oak timber. Spalting is a valued wood colouration process caused naturally by fungi. Spalting increases the contrasts of light and dark colours in the timber and makes brown and black lines running through the wood appear. This timber was grown on a beautiful block of land in Grafton owned by my father and fell due to natural causes and lay undisturbed in its bushland habitat enough years for the spalting process to begin. It was then carried on the shoulders of a man in a flannelette shirt, strapped onto the roof of a Toyota Landcruiser, travelled to sunny Queensland where is has been sawn into pens, pencils, letter opener and ice cream scoop blanks. The natural uniqueness in the woodgrain and timber colour variations, means that each wooden pen we create is one of a kind, hence they make excellent gifts.

    This distinctive Sierra pen is created by an artisan who hand turns each pen on a wood 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 spalted silky oak timber. Our finish is highly durable, smooth and super glossy.

    This Sierra pen has black and 24k gold plated fittings and features a smooth click mechanism which reveals the nib. It comes with a premium black ink refill and takes a standard Parker pen refill.  Find our quality Parker style refills here.

    The Sierra comes standard in a protective velvet pen sleeve. You can add a quality black pen box or engrave-able timber box below.
