This is a very attractive slimline twist ballpoint pen made from Walnut wood. It's made with a satin pearl finish center band, tip, and clip. The pen uses a Cross® style refill that features a premium Swiss-made carbide writing tip for smooth consistent writing. To replace the refill, pull off top of pen above the center band and twist out the refill. A highly polished lacquer finish was used to protect the wood. These hand made pens make wonderful gifts and are absolute treasures to own!
