This is very, very rare Camatillo rosewood. The grain is purple and violet it has great pattern. Camatillo comes from Central America where it is selectively logged by hand and harvested from the forest by mules in an environmentally friendly manner. It is very difficult and expensive to acquire. The pen style is magnetic cap rollerball.

Finish is CA
