Ballpoint twist pen, "Pluma" style in Banded retailer Malachite TruStone acrylic and chrome finish hardware, my Item 103640

This handcrafted pen is a "Pluma" style ballpoint which opens and closes with a twist of the top cap which is easy to grip with a beautifully knurled pattern. It uses standard Parker (or equivalent) ballpoint pen refills (ships with black ink). This pen, my item # 103640, is made of an acrylic resin trade named "TruStone" (a proprietary blend of powdered stone or mineral suspended in an acrylic resin designed to simulate the actual stone while making it machinable on a lathe), this particular one in banded malachite, a deep green mineral with beautiful striations throughout. The metal hardware is a bright chrome finish. This is a very attractive pen which is a bit shorter than many and the slightly heavier TruStone retailer gives it a very nice heft. It ships in a plastic gift box with black bottom, clear top, and a padded, gray inner cushion.
