Wenge (pronounced WHEN-gii or WHEN-ghay) is native to central Africa. These trees can reach 90 feet in height with a 4-foot trunk diameter. Its heartwood is a medium brown with nearly black streaks. With an oil finish, the wood can become nearly black and is dark enough to be used as a substitute for ebony.
With its luminous two-tone plating, this streamlined pen has mystery, flair, and elegance plus a smooth twist mechanism.
Chrome plating is a technique of electroplating a thin layer of chromium onto a metal object which is not only decorative but provides corrosion resistance, increases surface hardness, and eases cleaning.
Gunmetal, also known as red brass, is a type of bronze that was once used chiefly for making guns (it has largely been replaced by steel) and is still used for steam and hydraulic castings, valves, gears, statues, and various small objects.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.
