A part of the appeal of a fountain pen is that it is symbolic and lastingly so. The latest offering in the Krone’s line of fountain pens is the Custer pen that touts peerless historical traits. This unique pen has been designed in a dedication to General George Armstrong Custer. The cap of the device, which is made of genuine horn, has been festooned with sterling silver that features two Custer’s historical artifacts, including a splinter of General George Armstrong Custer personal powder horn and a fragment of a bead from one of Sitting Bulls camps. The barrel of the historic fountain pen has been adorned with a hand-painted picture of Custer’s Last Stand. Available throughout the world in a limited edition of 388 fountain pens and 38 rollerballs with solid .925 sterling accents, the Custer pen is priced at $3839.
