Approximately 3 Billion Years Ago The Isle of Lewis (pronounced Lews) was the Birth Place Of The British Isles. The first bed rock to appear of the British Isles as the sea's subsided, was the Isle of Lewis (Lewisian Rock).Testimony to this are the Standing Stones at Calanias dating back some 5000 years, which pre date the Pyramids and Stonehenge.
Gaelic is spoken alongside English, and Eagles live alongside Otters and people. The contrast of the ages and cultures is experienced all over the isles of Lewis and Harris (The Isles of Lewis and Harris are one isle) in the towns and out in the hills and mountains. In the summer months local people on the Isle can still be seen cutting the peat's and in the winter, the distinctive dry smell of the peat fire drifts in the wind.
The Western Isles culture remains very strong, particularly in its religious beliefs. Sundays remain a very special day, and many people observe strict compliance to the Free Church traditional values. Sunday remains a day for contemplation and the family, with mainly only the most necessary of businesses and organizations being required to work.

Instrument Care: Please do not expose your pen or pencil to extremes of HOT and COLD temperatures as this may affect the finish etc.. Some woods are sensitive to heat and splits or cracks may develop.
Harsh cleaning fluids or abrasive substances should not be used at any cost, as all items undergo many stages of sanding and polishing they may damage the fine finish !
Only use a good quality wood paste or spray that you would be happy to use on any fine wooden furniture. If using a spray, only spray onto the cloth not directly onto the pen. Gently buff the pen to restore the lustre with a soft, clean cloth.

If you have never owned or seen a wooden pen you really don’t know what you are missing. Wood pens are definitely the most elegant writing instruments one can own.
Considering the fact that a wooden pen starts from just a block of wood, called a pen blank, and turns out to be an elegant and unique writing instrument…this is no small feat. More than just know how, it takes an artist’s eye to ensure the perfect wood pen upon completion.

Defects do not include bark incursions, voids or other naturally occurring effects in woods and other natural materials, I class these as adding natural beauty and uniqueness to your handmade item, errors in production enhance the items uniqueness, by definition "handmade" means similar items can differ due to production methods.
