Krone George Washington
On April 30, 1789,
George Washington stood on the balcony of the Federal Hall on Wall Street in
New York and took the oath of office as the first President of the United
States. President Washington set the standards for all who followed by his wise
and honorable leadership and unwavering devotion to the American people and the
principles of the Constitution. Krone honors George Washington, the father of
our country, with an elegantly handcrafted writing instrument. Hand painted in
rich presidential navy, the cap is adorned with ornate gold detailing featuring
the Washington family coat of arms. The matte silver clip’s raised nail heads
are reminiscent of the colonial era. Fine barley etching details both ends of
the cap and barrel, as well as the nib casing. George Washington’s signature is
engraved at the base of the cap. Hand painted to capture the victorious
winter’s day, the barrel depicts General Washington gallantly leading the
Americans at the Battle of Princeton. A coin atop the pen encapsulates fibers
taken from Washington’s uniform decorated with ‘The Society of the Cincinnati’
emblem. ‘The Society of the Cincinnati’ originally a brotherhood of war
veterans continues today as an organization dedicated to public interest in the
American Revolution. Available in a worldwide Limited Edition of 388 fountain
pens with sterling silver accents. Cartridge/converter
fill fountain pen has an 18K gold nib.
