Story
As the waning days of summer give way to the changing season, we present our newest Estie, a tribute to the prismatic beauty of a light-filled Honeycomb. Honey is as old as history itself. Used for more than 8000 years by ancient civilizations as a gift to the Gods, archaeologists excavating Egypt’s famous pyramids discovered tombs that contained still-edible 3000 year-old honey. Bees also know the magic of crystallized honey, storing and using it for food as fall arrives and winter approaches. The Estie Honeycomb is flecked with the colors of rich amber, golden sunsets, and is reminiscent of the rainbow of rustling leaves underfoot. Join us in welcoming the fall with this newest addition to the Estie range.

Regarding Engraving:
Please review your submission carefully for any typos or other mistakes. Esterbrook will engrave what was submitted as it appears upon your check-out.
Note that the engraving preview is purely for illustrative purposes and the final product will be the pen you selected. The filling of the engraving (the color) will match what trim you had selected (e.g., if you selected gold, the engraving will also be gold).
Note that there may be some variation in engraving with serifs and script font.
The engraving location is on the side of the cap with the clip facing upwards. An example of this position can be found here. No substitutions on location can be made.
Please allow an additional 3 business days for manufacturing time if the engraving option is selected.
