These pens are made from actual postage stamps, they are glued onto the brass tubes and then encased in resin. They are then turned on my lathe into their final shape.
These pens are fitted with brass cores to make the pen fit together better, you can also get Parker and Cross ink refills if you prefer these brands of ink. It comes with a black gift box.
This pen measures 130mm in length.
Maker: Purpleheart Woodturning
Dominic tells us “My woodturning journey began in May 2019 when I attended a craft fair in the UK and I was fortunate enough to make a simple wooden pen on one of the stalls and from that moment I was hooked. As soon as I got back to Jersey I immediately ordered my first lathe, tools, chucks and a large volume of wooden blanks. I began to look into the concept of using materials other than wood for my products and I now make a variety of giftware including wooden bowls, wooden pens, resin pens with encased stamps, bottle stoppers, keyrings, Christmas decorations etc.”
