City Rollerball in Fiddleback Maple with Rhodium and 22k Gold detailing

Fiddleback Maple (Acer saccharum) The North American sugar maple gives us glorious autumn colours and maple syrup, as well as this usually uniformly pale timber with its definite attractive lustre. The figuring forms in the sapwood when the tree is subjected to environmental stress, such as strong winds rocking the branches. This special figuring is still used by Luthiers for the backs of Fiddles.

The classic design and superb balance of the Gentleman's Pen makes this pen a favourite among those who prefer larger, heftier desk pens. This pen has 22k gold and cobalt accents on a brilliant Rhodium finish. (Rhodium, a member of the platinum group of metals. Rhodium's brilliance, hardness and beauty has made it a favourite of fine pen makers and collectors throughout the world) The Rollerball features a top-quality German-madeRollerball with a ceramic point to give free-flowing effortless writing. The thread found on the Gentleman's pen guarantees silky smooth operation and requires only 1-1/2 turns to attach or remove the pen cap. In the tradition of fine desk pens, the Gentleman's Pen is not designed for use with the cap attached. This ensures that you will enjoy the effortless writing and superb balance of the Gentleman's pen every time you use it. Just be sure to leave the pen cap in plain sight where others can see what they're missing!
