Purpleheart, sometimes called amaranth, can be found in Central and South America, from Mexico down to southern Brazil. This tree can reach heights of 170 feet with a 5-foot trunk diameter.
Purpleheart starts out with a light lavender color that darkens to a rich purple with exposure to heat.
With its luminous two-tone plating, this streamlined pen has mystery, flair, and elegance plus a smooth twist mechanism. Epoxy coating on 24-karat gold plating ensures extreme durability.
Gunmetal, also known as red brass, is a type of bronze that was once used chiefly for making guns (it has largely been replaced by steel) and is still used for steam and hydraulic castings, valves, gears, statues, and various small objects.
Accepts Parker-style ballpoint refills.
