This bog oak is an ancient wood that is sub-fossilized and radiocarbon dating has dated the wood around 3300 BC.  The area where this bog oak was harvested is below sea level and most of the trees are buried in several feet of peat.  Some of the trees excavated from the peat are in excess of 100 feet in length.  Once the logs are removed they are sawed and put through a rigorous drying process.  This bog oak has the weight and density comparable to the world’s most highly valued tropical hardwoods.  The wood is commonly used in furniture and stringed instruments.
**We make several of these pens at one time.  The pen you will receive will be the same colors but may have different swirls and patterns in it since every piece of acrylic / wood is unique.  The pen pictured is an example of the colors and how the acrylic / wood will look.  
With every pen purchase you receive a gift box, certificate of authenticity, pen pouch, and our business information.  With fountain pen purchases you also get one converter / ink pump, one ink cartridge, and fountain pen instructions.  With our mechanical pencils you will also get instructions.  We offer free USPS first class shipping on certain items.  **Dragon pens do not come with a pen pouch due to their size.  
The pens offered by Provincial Mills are handcrafted in the United States (Colorado). We stand behind the craftsmanship of our products 100%.  If you are not happy with your purchase, please contact us within 21 days and return the undamaged product within 30 days and we will refund the purchase price minus a 10% restocking fee (max restocking fee of $17.50). Returned items must be in the same condition as they were when shipped (no scratches, wear and tear, broken pieces ect.).  Due to the nibs and ink used in fountain pens, the fountain pens must be unused if returned.    Most woods and antler are finished with a CA glue coating which gives them a long-lasting shine and helps protect them.  Depending on the material, some materials may be finished with a rubbing oil and high-speed friction polish.  If the rubbing oil and high-speed friction polish is used, it will be stated in the pen description.
