Mankind has always been in need of communication between individuals. There are many theories interpreting different forms of communication between people, but applying pigment to a surface has always worked. The first humans drew cave paintings in their dwellings, some of which still exist today. As human beings began growing more articulate over the ages, people have required more need for writing instruments. When the first form of paper was invented artists and writers began using quills, large feathers, filled with pigment in order to apply that ink to paper in a detailed manner. Writing tools have since become an art form and crafters started making handmade wood pens.
There is a wide range of price within this specific category of writing instruments. They can range anywhere from the cost of an average lunch to the value of a new computer. Since so many different people craft these wooden writing instruments, there are many techniques used. Different people have varying styles that make each one different. These writing tools can are collected by some are not even in production anymore.
The type of wood and materials used to fashion the pen are big contributing factors that affect the cost. The harder woods tend to be more expensive because they are more durable and last longer. People who fashion this product will also sometimes use expensive materials such as deer antlers or elephant tusks in the writing tool to increase the value.
Cheap models usually will not have interchangeable ink cartridges available so people who want this available to them should invest in intermediate or higher end writing tools. High quality models that have ballpoint refills are as reliable as the refill. This means the way the pen writes can be changed very easily.
On the other hand, the more fancy models will have a built in ink fountain mechanism that allows ink to be sucked in through the tip when empty. These writing instruments are very nice and are usually slightly more expensive. The writer can also choose the quality and brand of ink they like best.
The types of people who purchase these pens are usually writers themselves or collectors of some sort. However, some people look for rare models and auction them off for profit. Many people also buy these writing instruments as gifts for friends and family who have intellectual backgrounds and would appreciate an antiquity like this. Freehand writing is a hobby that is very much alive as well. Even though most writers these days use a computer, some still enjoy the feel of writing on paper.
People who write are not the only client base for this type of item however. Writing tools like these make wonderful gifts for any type of intellectual person that would appreciate things like this. Types of people who would enjoy this gift could be anyone from a business person to an engineer or college student.
When all is said and done, handmade wood pens are a great compliment to any intellectual personality. It would be much appreciated as a gift item and make excellent collectible items.
