Hybrid Timber & Resin Pen Blank
Crafted from genuine Australian mallee burr and infused with a rich blood red resin, each blank is a unique canvas waiting to be transformed into a truly eye-catching writing instrument or small turning.
The mallee burr is prized for its intricate grain patterns, dense structure, and natural voids. These organic features are not flaws, but character—each pocket and contour tells the story of the tree’s growth in the harsh Australian outback. To highlight and complement this natural beauty, the burr is carefully paired with a high-quality metallic Blood Red resin, pressure-cast to ensure strength, clarity, and minimal bubbles. The result is a striking contrast of textures: warm, earthy burl swirling against a radiant golden shimmer.
