RR3
 
As in the first two RR series, the focus is on intricate hand-applied guilloché with attractive and complimentary Damascus steel stoppers. This time the Damascus has again been commissioned from Robert Eggerling who is well known in the knife-making industry. Through his skill this attractive radial pattern for the stoppers was designed and forged specifically for the RR3.. There is a matching Damascus stopper at each end of the pen. Eighteen pens make the series and they are each numbered. So if you get more than one you can tell them apart! For your additional enjoyment there is a YouTube video that shows the guilloché process in detail for the RR3.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyqeeZpSdEo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyqeeZpSdEoshapeimage_3_link_0
As in the prior series, each pen is meticulously engraved using ca. 1967 Neuweiler and Engelsberger straight line engine turning machines which uses no motors or computer controls. The pattern is beautifully unusual in that it grows from plain straight lines to an undulating 3D texture. The clips are hand made and engraved out of solid sterling silver. Rounding out the entire work of art is the Conway Stewart solid sterling section and solid 18K gold nib. The RR3 weighs in at approximately 86 grams and the weight provides those that are inclined towards beautiful metal pens a writing stability that helps guide the pen and nib through stylographic art. The nib styles are the standard provided by Conway Stewart - EF, F, M, B, BB, IF, IM, and IB. The pens are also hallmarked in England as to authenticity in traditional English fashion.
