8. One of my favorites pieces of the Cypress collection, particularly due to the tactile urushi done using real foliage used to imprint the pattern on surface of the pen. Fitted with steel broad nib, CC filled. Intense red color which will wear nicely over time to show the undertones. Perfect carrier for your favorite nib. New, comes with box and papers. US$310 shipped within USA Dropped to US$295 9. Cypress raden pen. This was one of their prototype pieces. Everything raden except the threads. The darker shade shells help keep it understated and interesting. Doubles as your sidekick and conversation starter New with box/papers. US$310 shipped within USA | Edit - Nib is steel 1.1 mm stub. Dropped to US$295
Combo offer - Take the two Cypress pens, no. 8 and 9 for US$550
1. SeYPen Bamboo forest maki-e pen done by local Japanese artist. This was one of the first batch of pens they did and comes with matching section instead of the black ebonite they list on their website now. I hate to sell this one, as the landscape might look simple but it unravels as you let your eyes dwell. Original Medium 14K gold nib. Cartridge converter filled. Comes with box/papers. US$736 shipped within USA - Dropped to US$660; maki-e section for almost the price of
plain section on SeyPen's website. Now asking US$630 - the pictures don't do justice....understated and uncommon design.
3. Aurora 88 Black Demo Limited Edition of 1888 pens. I got it used from a dependable dealer in Europe but have not used it since, very nice condition. It has Aurora's signature ink reserve piston filler. It has the in-house 18K nib paired with ebonite feed. US$515 shipped within USA. Dropped to US$465. Now asking US$435
