The David Oscarson Black Water Snake Fountain Pen in Teal is a striking tribute to one of the twelve animals of the Chinese Zodiac. The Snake, often associated with wisdom, intuition, and transformation, is reimagined in this extraordinary limited-edition writing instrument through David Oscarson’s renowned artistry and symbolism.
Handcrafted from solid sterling silver, the pen features intricate guilloché engraving, layered with shimmering teal translucent hot enamel. The serpent motif winds sinuously around the cap and barrel, its detailed scales and flowing form highlighted in sterling silver. The deep teal enamel evokes flowing waters, symbolizing renewal, adaptability, and hidden strength.
As with all David Oscarson creations, the Black Water Snake is finished using centuries-old techniques of guilloché and vitreous enamel—craftsmanship few artisans in the world have mastered to this level. Fitted with a precision-tuned 18k gold nib, the pen delivers a smooth, expressive writing experience. A cartridge/converter filling system provides modern practicality while maintaining its heirloom quality.
Produced in limited numbers, the Black Water Snake Teal Fountain Pen is more than a writing instrument—it is a collector’s piece steeped in cultural meaning, blending myth, artistry, and fine craftsmanship.
