Penturners delux

[Rasmus Petersen]

I have a special project, some guys want me to help them make some pens. Now that's not a problem, but they want something SPECIAL, not anything that can be bought elsewhere.

I remember seeing a website with a couple of brothers (i think) that made all the parts themselves and made very very high end pens.. And price is not an issue!!

Anybody know the site or something similar

Oh, well, neither of those two sites come even close to the most expensive in the world.

There was a solid, hand-carved, jade pen in a magazine I looked at several months ago. It was $250,000US. Ah, found it. The Loiminchay "Nine Dragons". You can see it here: http://www.luggagepensgifts.com/loiminchay/loiminchay_9_dragons.htm

Monte Blanc made 81 of these diamond/ruby encrusted pens

Then there the Visconti "Divina Proporzione HRH" with 6.14 carats of diamonds (over 50 diamonds just on the nib cover). http://www.visconti.it/hrh.html

If you want to see the world's most expensive pens, get yourself a subscription to "PenWorld" magazine. They are gorgeous, but hoooboy are they out of my price range.
