White House Handmade Pens

 

White House

 Hand Turned Pens

Recently, I was commissioned to create two wood turned pens made from trees planted at the White House. 

This was my first time making them from "sticks" rather than processed wood. I will admit that it was a challenge to lathe such tiny pieces of wood.

The wood is Calamandin Orange from  Eisenhower’s time in office. The second pen is Willow Oak from Lyndon Johnson’s time in office.

I am very pleased with how they both turned out. Display boxes were also custom engraved on my laser engraver.

Both pens became gifts for two special recipients. I was just brought some padauk wood to create a new pen for the same gentleman with more requested pens to follow.
