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.
