Omas Limited Edition “I Think” Rollerball – Oakwood & Silver (809 pieces)

Description

The parts of this pen product of precious jewels represent the voyage which Darwin made around the oceans aboard the British brig HMS Beagle, which saw him make his decisive scientific discoveries within the Galapagos Islands, situated a thousand kilometres west of South The united states within the Pacific Ocean. The route taken by HMS Beagle is faithfully reproduced At the reservoir of the Limited Edition. The fine engraving is made the use of the “island” technique, performed with a hand-controlled pantograph, which permits extremely thin and accurate marks to be drawn, tracing the continents and a naval map dating from 1800. Taking a look on the pen via a magnifying glass, you’ll be able to read text and spot main points which can’t be seen by the naked eye. It’s painstaking work, which implies how attention and research can discover things which don’t seem to be it seems that visible.
At the best of the cap a drawing of a mockingbird has been engraved: it was once in truth the different sorts of this creature found within the different islands which suggested that the mutations had come about from a single original specimen. The similar thing happened within the analysis of the opposite species whose footprints are reproduced At the clip: turtle, marine iguana, land iguana, lava lizard, flamingo, gannet and gecko.
At the ring of the cap is a design of the structure of “DNA”, the nucleic acid which incorporates genetic information, to represent the long run after Darwin. Indeed, its discovery was once the fruit of just about a century’s work by other scientists within the wake of Darwin’s theories.
In addition to showing the map of the adventure and HMS Beagle, the body of the fountain pen is embellished with 4 twists of hawser, the cable used for docking ships.
