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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications \u0026amp; Details-\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Genuine Hand-Turned Black Palm Wood (Borassus flabellifer)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComponents: Premium quality Hexagonal style pen fittings (in gunmetal plating)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: Coated with sealer then a several coats of hard and durable melamine lacquer; finally the pen is waxed and hand-polished to a durable, high-gloss finish that protects and showcases the natural wood grain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack palm wood is really hard to work with and turn but it's worth the effort as you are rewarded with spectacular patterned and totally unique pens.
