Celestial Limited Edition Writing Instruments
The Celestial is the eighth masterpiece in the David Oscarson™ series of Limited Edition writing instruments. Available in five stunning color variations, each design is limited to just 88 pieces, making these pens true collector's items, whether as fountain pens or roller balls.
This collection is a testament to the timeless artistry and meticulous craftsmanship of Old World traditions. Each pen is crafted from 18-karat gold and .925 Sterling Silver, showcasing the intricate Guilloché engraving technique—a process that brings the precious metals to life through detailed, light-reflecting patterns.
The Celestial Collection features multiple levels of engraving, especially on the cap, where the sun and sunburst designs are carefully crafted to reflect solar flares and heat. The three-dimensional face of the sun, engraved on the rounded surface of the cap, is a striking highlight. Similarly, the barrel showcases the four phases of the moon, with stars of varying widths and depths intricately engraved to evoke the midnight sky.
The creation of the Hard Enamel that adorns these pens is an art in itself. Each coat of enamel, made from a hand-ground mixture of glass, water, and metal oxides, is meticulously applied to the engraved metal. After being fired at over 1,000°F, the enamel is fused to the metal, forming a resilient layer of glass. This process is repeated until the enamel perfectly covers the intricate Guilloché patterns, resulting in a rich, velvety finish.
The craftsmanship involved in producing these pens requires years of experience and an extraordinary level of skill. Each pen in the Celestial Collection is a masterpiece, combining both artistic beauty and engineering excellence. The pens also feature a unique filling system, engineered in Heidelberg, Germany, with a high-quality 18-karat gold nib that promises durability and a smooth writing experience.
