Browns, Purples, Black and even a bit of sapwood! Yes, THIS is East Indian Rosewood. A very famous member of the Dalbergia (Rosewood) family, East Indian Rosewood is easily one of the most beautiful woods in the world.

Meticulously and handsomely reproduced from an actual revolver, this nostalgically stylish pen looks and works just like a real revolver. It is the perfect gift for any gun aficionado. When you press the click mechanism the pen tip extends, the trigger clip moves up and the 6-barrel cylinder rotates to replicate you loading the gun. Then, when you pull the hairpin trigger pen clip the tip retracts while the 6-barrel cylinder quickly spins to replicate you firing the gun. Right above the cylinder you'll find a black metal grip that mimics a revolver handle. And the bullet cartridge pen tip represents your favorite .38 Special or .357 Magnum bullet. The mechanism, just like the gun, is durable and reliable and includes a Parker style refill.
I turned the barrel from a piece of Andira wood.  After turning, I sanded the wood to 600 grit then applied layers of friction polish to a medium shine.  The hardware on this pen is gun metal.
