The story of Bog Oak
Bog oak is an ancient material, over 5000 years old and often called fossil wood.
This rare wood is obtained without cutting down trees: it comes from trees buried in swamps and preserved from decay by natural conditions for hundreds or even thousands of years.
For nature lovers who want to write with an ancient wood, obtained without felling a single tree.
From our workshop
Every Grifos pen is made by hand in our workshop in Castiglione Torinese.
- Craftsmanship
The body is handcrafted from bog oak. The cap and grip are solid sterling silver with black anthracite ruthenium plating, engraved with a geometric guilloché design. The pen is hallmarked *TO 675 and 925, certifying the use of sterling silver.
- Writing
A double refilling system takes both a converter and ink cartridges, available in black and blue ink. Ruthenium-plated steel nib in medium size; Fine, Extra Fine and Broad on request at no additional charge. On request the pen can be fitted with a solid 18K gold nib or a rollerball point.
