Description
This is the White House Ballpoint Pen by Eagle Pen Company. The pen body is composed of sections of the original pine wood built into the roof of the White House in 1815. The pine was built into the White House as part of the restoration effort following the infamous burning of Washington, D.C., by the British during the War of 1812.
In 1927, President Calvin Coolidge renovated the White House. During that time, this pine wood was removed and documented. Eagle Pen Company acquired pieces of this wood in order to incorporate it into a small selection of unique, luxury pens.
The father and son team behind Eagle Pen Company are purveyors of the world's most unique writing instruments. They share a goal of bringing the luxury pen back to America. From start to finish, each pen is designed and handmade in the USA.
This pen is presented in a special gift box with a numbered and signed certificate from Eagle Pen Company.
