Mission City Pens

05/01/2026

First fine art show of the year for Mission City Pens. This Saturday and Sunday, May 2 - 3 at West Valley College in Saratoga, I will be showing my custom handmade fine writing instruments, plus other hand made items.

I select unique and uncommon materials to create one of a kind pens. My latest pen is real Wooly Mammoth fossilized molar tooth. How about abalone or exotic rare wood pens.

Largest selection of handmade custom pens on the west coast.

10am - 5pm this Saturday and Sunday, May 2-3, West Valley College, Saratoga, Ca. Free entry and free parking to all attendees.

Custom handmade pens for over 21 years. Thanks for looking.

I made this San Francisco 49er NFL fine high-end pen using an authentic licensed beer bottle cap. It came from a Canadian 2009-2010 promotion where the NFL teams were each featured on the bottle caps.

The bottle cap rough edge is cut off, the bottle cap is rounded to match the pen shape and cast in clear resin. I turn it to shape, sand and polish the resin to achieve a glass-like finish.

I made this pen with reliable superior quality components. Twist operated and easily replaced Parker compatible refill. Gift box included.

I have a limited selection of other NFL team pens.

Come see my latest creation - a pen made with a fosilized Wooly Mammoth tooth estimated to be at least 40,000 year old. Extremely difficult to make, but so exotic and unique. One of a kind.
