“The shadows are as important as the light,” painter Henri Matisse reminded us, and philosopher Sir Francis Bacon concurred: “In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present.” The iridescent swirled resin barrel of the True Writer Classic Shadow pen illustrates those metaphysical musings on the interplay of light and dark, illumination and shadow. Resplendent in shades of gray, black and mother-of-pearl, highlighted by gleaming chrome appointments, this is a pen that’s designed to stir the depths of deep thinkers and dedicated writers. As always, this True Writer Classic pen is perfectly weighted and balanced for a comfortable writing experience. Personalize it with an optional three-initial monogram or full name of up to 16 characters. Rollerball or Ballpoint.
