A beautiful Masur birch fountain pen with gold-plated trim hand turned on a lathe in my own UK workshop. Handcrafted pen barrels from Masur Birch wood, it is expensive and hard to get. It is only available in small quantities when found coming from an area between Finland and Russia. There is a lot of figure in the wood, making it quite unique as no piece is the same.
This fountain pen has a medium point nib with one ink cartridge to get you started straight away. The European style is small but elegant, ideal for people with smaller hands, a beautiful handmade gift for her.
Many people say these pens are the best fine writing instruments. With this wooden fountain pen, you will have an eye-catching pen perfect for smooth writing.
All my wooden fountain pens have up to eight coatings of super glue for a high gloss, hard, durable finish to protect the pen. The finish takes time and skill to apply, hence my prices. Other pens may have wax or friction polish as a finish; these won’t give any long-term protection to the pen if ever used. Natural oils from the skin will stain the pen.
Each fountain pen gift comes in a presentation box as the standard. As every piece of wood is different, these pens make great handmade wooden gifts for Birthdays or Father’s Day gifts.

It was over fifty years ago that I learnt to write and use a fountain pen, ever since I have got through life scribbling with cheap biros. A YouTube channel I follow about motorcycle riding recently mentioned fountain pens as a comparative example of quality in life. This prompted me to do an internet search for a U.K. company that hand makes fountain pens at reasonable prices. Thus Whitlock-Wooden-Designs. My 1st fountain pen purchase in 50 years has brought back the pleasure in writing, discovering different inks and getting ink stains again on my fingers… (not the fault of the pen I hasten to add). A few presents have already been sorted for Covid Christmas. Lovely products, very happy, thank you, John.
