Xezo Xezo Maestro® Oceanic White Mother of Pearl Fountain Pen (Fine Nib) - DLC (Diamond-Like Coating) PVD Cap

Each of these handmade fountain pens features a fine gold-plated stainless steel nib, chrome-plated brass fittings, and hand-inlaid panels of saltwater mother of pearl.

The screw-on cap is matte DLC PVD coated for exceptional durability. DLC, or "Diamond-Like Carbon", is a special type of PVD coating that bonds carbon atoms (what diamonds are made of) to the surface of your pen. This advanced process simulates the effect of a layer of diamonds on top of your pen, with all of the protection you would expect from the precious stone.

While some makers produce pens with small pieces of mother of pearl, we at Xezo believe that the difficulty and cost it takes to use saltwater white mother of pearl of this size and quality creates a stunning effect that is well worth all the work it involves. We use mother of pearl with a hardness of 4.5 on the Mohs scale (as hard as steel).
Mother of pearl is a natural material, and every panel is unique. Due to this, some distinctions in the colors and textures in these pens may occur, helping make your pen one of a kind. The pen barrel is round and smooth.
