The metal on my clips and center bands will not wear off.  I use only Titanium Gold, Platinum, and Chrome.  The gold-plated finish used by most other penmakers will wear.

My pens are designed to feel great in the hand.  I have Parker Gel Pens that write as smooth as the $600 Mont blanc Rollerball pens.   I only use refills that are easily available at Staples and Office Depot.  I also make Rollerball and Fountain pens.

My pens are made in my hand-built workshop in the country near Sebastopol, California, which is about 50 miles north of San Francisco.  They come with a 5 year warranty, a gift box, and your name or monogram on the clip.  The pen that is pictured on this site is the same exact pen that you get. No one will ever have a pen exactly like the pen you buy from me.

I ship by USPS Priority mail and you should get your pen in two to three days.

If you want your pen engraved with 8 letters or three initials at no charge, email me at abeautifulpen@gmail.com with your engraving choice when you order.  The engraving is on the clip in a script font and looks like fine handwriting.

Your satisfaction is guaranteed.  If you are not happy with the pen return it within 7 days for a full refund.

The replacement pen arrived today.It is beautiful. You really are a great guy to deal with. There was only one attitude displayed to help my wife and I when we had a bit of difficulty with the pen we bought from you.........That was understanding and helpfulness. An absolute pleasure to do business with a gentleman such as yourself.
Regards, Kevin and Carolyn B.

"I've been delighted with your pen. On one of my next trips up to Mill Valley I'd like to stop by and purchase 10 pens. I love my pen. I use it for special signings (I'm a Realtor) and my partner and I are getting together some mailings and gift items so I'll discuss perhaps working in the pens as a gift ..." Leslie C.

Many thanks, for the info (about the web site)!!! The pen I purchased was a gift. My sister-in-law loved it... you saved my life...she's hard to buy gifts for...again thanks."  Susan O.
