The pen is classically designed based on the idea of a skeleton key which has been used for over two thousand years. Many old fashioned skeleton keys were made during an era when elaborate metalwork was prized so the pen was created with a pen clip with intricate decorations and ornamental flourishes. The pen is approximately 5 1/2" long and 1/2" wide (actual sizes vary due to the handcrafting process) and comes with a Parker black ink cartridge. The pictured pen (#690) is the pen you will receive and is shipped USPS priority mail in a felt pouch usually within 24 hours of the order.
