conklin glider ballpoint coral chase ck71142
the conklin pen company is hard at work to re create its original designs and offer modern pens with classic vintage flair . the latest addition to our legendary pen collection is the glider chase design . the process of chasing also known as guilloch is used to create a beautiful and fascinating decorative design and texture that is embedded into the surface of the pens material . in the 1900s most pens were made of hard black rubber . chasing became a popular process to add creative and intricate design to the otherwise common look of a simple black pen . the complicated and delicate craft of chasing afforded talented artists the opportunity to show and display their unique abilities . since the chasing process required excellent skills and was very time consuming it added great value to the pen.today instead of using hard rubber glider writing instruments are made from turned resins in colors selected specifically to evoke earlier designs . in addition conklin is proud to offer a unique chase pattern that very closely replicates the vintage models . although done with modern machinery it is a time consuming process that takes precision workmanship and meticulous attention to detail . features the original spring loaded rocker clip design patented by conklin in 1916 . this perfectly balanced clip will easily fit and hold firmly in thin shirt pockets as well as in thick jacket or coat pockets . twist action ballpoint is perfectly balanced and fills with standard refills .
