A Legendary Tonewood in Your Pocket

Brazilian rosewood has a long reputation among master craftsmen, prized for decades by luthiers building high-end guitars and by furniture makers for its beauty and depth. Today it is rare and highly valued, which makes a pen turned from it a special piece to own. Its rich reddish-brown body is streaked with bold, dark grain lines, and like many fine hardwoods, it deepens and darkens gracefully as it ages. Every pen shows its own natural figure, so yours will be truly one of a kind.

Classic Cigar Shape with Chrome Accents

Frank turns this pen in the Cuban cigar style, with a generously sized barrel that narrows toward each end for a comfortable, well-balanced grip. Polished chrome hardware gives it a crisp, bright finish that lets the warm tones and dark grain of the rosewood take center stage. It is a pen that feels substantial without being heavy, and it looks right at home on a desk, in a shirt pocket, or tucked into a leather journal.

Locally Handcrafted for Everyday Writing

Each pen is hand-turned by Frank in St. Charles County, a local maker who takes genuine pride in every piece. A smooth twist extends the tip with no cap to lose, and the German-made Schmidt refill delivers a consistent, reliable line and can be replaced when it runs dry. It is an ideal gift for milestones like promotions, retirements, anniversaries, and weddings.

This pen is sold on consignment on behalf of the maker. All consignment sales are final. Stop by our shop in the Cottleville Old Town Historic District to see Frank’s handmade pens in person, or order online.
