"The only true beauty exists in nature and the artist only achieves the sublime when emulating nature."
It is with this ethos firmly in mind that David MacKinnon created the Honeycomb range of luxurious pens. Based on the natural miracle that is the honeycomb, these English, handcrafted pens represent an epoch in pen craftsmanship. Each pen is created using a combination of traditional and innovative techniques.
The pieces are each handcrafted from .925k sterling silver and hallmarked in London. All component parts then pass through many precision engraved patterns known as guilloché, a technique often used in the creation of Fabergé Eggs. This brings illumination and light to the precious metals. The honeycomb pattern in the cap and the barrel are recessed prior to the guilloché pattern being engraved, leaving the honeycomb form in high relief. The pens are then hard enameled before being finished with 18k gold.
