Xezo Xezo Maestro® Black and White Mother of Pearl Rollerball Pen - 18K Gold Plated

<p>The Xezo Maestro® Black and White Mother of Pearl rollerball pen is adorned with shiny 18K gold-plated brass fittings. The silky smooth line is approximately 0.6 mm wide. This pen features natural, oceanic origin, Grade AAA black Tahitian mother of pearl shell and and oceanic white mother of pearl. Long panels of this precious material were carefully measured, cut, placed, and polished by hand to create a perfectly smooth and seamless round surface. This intensive polishing process shows off the nacre's deep vibrancy and iridescence naturally, with no clear coat or other finish applied. A shimmering array of various colors and hues can be seen shifting on this pen’s body in the light. </p><p>While some makers produce pens with small pieces of mother of pearl, we at Xezo believe that the difficulty and cost it takes to use Tahitian mother of pearl of this size and quality creates a stunning effect that is well worth all the work it involves. We use mother of pearl with a hardness of 4.5 on the Mohs scale (as hard as steel).<br>Mother of pearl is a natural material, and every panel is unique. Due to this, some distinctions in the colors and textures in these pens may occur, helping make your pen one of a kind. The pen barrel is round and smooth. We truly hope that this quality writing instrument will reflect on the connoisseur’s taste of its owner.</p>
