This listing is for one Dip Pen. I originally designed these for Central Oregon's High Desert Museum to use in the Old School House exhibit. These beautiful traditional writing instruments measure approximately 6 inches long and are turned to fit ergonomically into your hand for the most comfortable writing experience. They are available in any wood variety. Nibs are replaceable and come with a Hiro #40 "Blue Pumpkin". These are unique and fun to use in drawing, cartooning, or simply for a novelty writing experience. Ink not included. All pieces come with an Identity Card that details the wood type, Latin name, wood characteristics, and is personally signed by the woodworker.
Elegant Woodworking Gifts
Founded in 2005 by Brian Wachs, Elegant Woodworking Gifts creates elegant, custom-made wooden products using the highest quality products while keeping the local community intact. We also do our best to make a positive impact on the world around us.
To appreciate the beauty, intricacy, and character of each piece pays homage to our natural world and reduces the culture of a mass-produced, disposable, and irresponsible mentality.
Producing the highest quality products while keeping the local community intact is important to us, so we buy local products and services whenever possible.
Brian Wachs is a local artist who works as a natural resources teacher in his spare time. Much of the inspiration for his work stems from his love of the outdoors and results in both a technical understanding of detailed species, characteristics, and science of his products balanced with an immense reverence for the beauty and mystery of nature. Look for the fine details and nuances to appreciate the imperfections and inconsistencies that make natural products so wonderful and unique. Enjoy these products and please take the opportunity to learn about your new and useful work of art.
Great experience working with Brian. He was able to make a gift for me with the tight turnaround I needed. Thank you!
Very nice experience. He customized it exactly as I'd hoped he would. It has now become my favorite pen out of many others.
Lack of effective communication and serious change to plans that wasn't approved. Board arrived in 3 pieces. Measuring, the board is almost an inch out of square, the parts in one section look thrown together and do not align as in the plans and are all flush with the lower plane rather than alternating between the lower plane and the raised trim. I am glad that I decided to have a second board made by a different artist shortly after commissioning this one.
It's nice and well made.
Great experience overall. Very pleased with the product and artist's communication.
