This is an oversized Merritt Classic Fountain Pen Handcrafted by Richard Lee Merritt from a rare piece of two-toned Amboyna Burl. This fine writing instrument is dressed in Rhodium plated (Platinum Family) appointments and accented with beautiful hand-cast engraved insets on the ends of the cap and pen barrel as well as the accent band in Black Titanium.  A very Limited Number of Merritt Classic Fountain Pens are made each year.

In the tradition of fine desk pens, the Merritt Classic Fountain Pen is not designed for use with the cap attached to the pen. This ensures that you will enjoy effortless writing and the perfect balance of the Merritt Classic every time you use it.  The cap screws on and off with only one and a half turns and is ultra smooth.

A special clear gloss finish is applied by hand to add superior beauty and durability, the burl wood is also specially hand stabilized to ensure the highest quality of standards possible in a writing instrument . (*Note: This is the natural color of the wood burl, No stains are used on Merritt Fine Writing Instruments)

This Merritt Fountain Pen features a top quality German-made two-tone nib (Medium) with genuine iridium point for smooth writing and dependable ink flow. It will accept standard ink cartridges as well as converters. Includes a premium Schmidt ink converter and ink cartridges. Also included is a sleek genuine leather case.
Pen measures 11/16” wide x 5 3/4” long. Upgrade to a 18k Solid Gold Nib for $100.00 (Notify after purchase for upgrade to 18k Gold Nib/A separate invoice will be sent for upgrades)

The photos do not do justice to the beauty and balance of this fine writing instrument.

Thank you to a very special customer Diane from UK
