This elegant pen uses a durable gold plated finish to accent the lustrous Imperial Jade Tru-Stone body. Tru-Stone

is a man-made material composed of 85% natural stone ore that has been pulverized to a powder then mixed

with pigments and acrylic resin. The result is a substance that looks and feels like natural stone, but can be

turned on a lathe. After shaping, the Tru-Stone is polished to a high sheen. The writing tip can be exposed by

twisting the upper body of the pen relative to the lower section, in either direction.

This pen uses readily available Parker-style ink refills. The ink cartridge can be accessed by unscrewing the

upper body of the pen from the lower section. Included with the pen is a premium EasyFLOW 9000 ink cartridge,

manufactured by the Schmidt company in Germany. I have found this to be the finest Parker-style ink refill

available.
