This exquisite writing instrument is individually black palm wood is hand-turned by the shop owner, before hand pairing the dramatic, naturally contrasting tones of Black Palm wood with high-quality, precision-engineered metal components purchased from the renowned UK supplier, Beaufort Ink. This is the actual pen you will receive. Fitted with ink reservoir for use with bottled ink and can also use international short cartridges, one included.
Black Palm wood, also known as Palmyra Palm (Borassus flabellifer), is not a traditional softwood or hardwood, but rather a monocotโmore closely related to grasses and bamboo.
The wood features a dramatic aesthetic of dense, dark, nearly-black vascular fibers embedded in a lighter, tan-to-brown cellular structure. This pattern gives it a stunning, speckled, or "porcupine wood" look that is entirely unique. No two pens are exactly alike.
Native to tropical Asia and Africa, the Black Palm has been historically revered. In some cultures, particularly in India, it is known as the "celestial tree" (Katpaha taru) because every part of the tree has a use. The hard, durable outer wood of the trunk was traditionally used for everything from rafters and boat-building to durable walking sticks and tool handles.
Only the hardest, most dense sections of the outer trunk are utilised to produce the wooden blanks used to make this pen. Ensuring your pen has a solid, substantial feel in the hand. Unlike conventional woods, Black Palm has no growth rings or knots, resulting in a distinct, straight-grained fiber that runs the length of the pen.
A unique wood deserves superior hardware. We have selected a premium fountain pen kit from Beaufort Ink, a premier supplier in the UK known for their commitment to quality and pen enthusiast-designed components.
