Declaration of Independence signor Richard Stockton # N/AMC2779 Black Locust

Declaration of Independence signor Richard Stockton # N/AMC2779 Black LocustThis is a pen made from a Black Locust tree growing at Morven. This house served as the official residence of several New Jersey Governors, and was originally, the home of Richard Stockton, a New Jersey signatory to the Declaration of Independence and the only signer captured and imprisoned by the British during the American Revolution. The honey colored wood on this pen gives off a brilliant little light show. You will see what I mean when you tip it

It is a two tone pen with two little knots

held to be the only still living tree planted by a signer

growing at Summerseat in Morrisville Pennsylvania

a tree planted over the grave of Declaration of Independence Signer Dr

This pen is made from a small holly growing in that yard

fine grained pen features an engraved copy of the Benjamin Franklin signature found on the United States Constitution

This is a naturally occurring feature in this particular piece of wood

just all around HAPPY experience
