William Penn # P;AOD2642 Box Elder

William Penn # P;AOD2642 Box ElderThis William Penn Pen is made from a Box Elder that was growing on land that was part of the colonial country manor of Founding Father William Penn. It, and a number of other trees, was removed to make room for a boat launch and parking lot on the Delaware River. The color is all natural though somewhat rare in the wood. The red blade has an eye in it that has a most interesting reflective quality when moved around in the light. CAUTION: the red color

I make these pens in cooperation with Christ Church Burial Ground in Philadelphia

This pen is a chatoyant silver brown with darker streaks and patterns

Distinctive grain patterns make this pen a stand out
