The Bexley 2007 Owners Club pens


 
The 2009 Bexley Owners Club Edition uses a material that is highly sought-after by pen enthusiasts -- mottled hard rubber. This is a natural substance, manufactured from natural latex harvested from rubber plants, combined with sulfur to harden it, and oxides to color it. For example, lamp black had traditionally been added for black, and iron oxide for red hard rubber.

Pen aficionados often call it ebonite, and appreciate how it feels warmer to the touch than plastics, its durability, and its rich, deep colors.

In recognition of our sixteenth year, there are 116 fountain pens in red/black ebonite, and 116 in olive/black ebonite, both with yellow gold trim. There are also 116 fountain pens in blue/black ebonite with rhodium trim. The grip sections, plus the top and bottom screws are made from matching solid black ebonite. The pens also feature our popular roller ball clip and a 'rhomboid' style cap band.

The pens are equipped with Bexley's two-tone 18k solid gold nibs in fine, medium, broad, or broad stub widths. They fill from standard ink cartridges, or the supplied piston-filling converters.

The Bexley Owners Club pens are bench-made in our factory in Columbus, Ohio. Our master craftsmen make each pen individually - cutting, shaping, smoothing, test-fitting, adjusting, assembling, polishing the body, installing your nib, and testing the finished pen for proper performance.

In a world of mass production, it is a pleasure to produce a bench-made, high-quality product. In fact, Bexley Pen is the only writing instrument manufacturer still making fine fountain pens in the USA. It would be our privilege to make one for you.

The Bexley 2009 Owners Club pens will be available beginning December 2008 to previously registered owners of Bexley Pens. Availability to the general public begins in February 2009. Registered owners will receive a postcard with an unlock code permitting them to open the necessary documents to order their pen in early December 2008.

MSRP* for the FP is $395 (116 Serialized Pieces) each color  --  2009Red, 2009Olive, 2009Blue
