Description
This pen was made by the team of employees located at the Conway Stewart factory, in Plymouth Devon, accompanied by the official trademarked Conway Stewart warranty booklet and housed in the official trademarked Conway Stewart packaging.Conway Stewart launched a limited edition comprised of just 50 numbered pieces worldwide in celebration of their European Raleigh model.
The Raleigh series has been a popular model for Conway Stewart since its introduction; however, they chose to retire the Raleigh model to make room for new models and designs throughout 2013.
The Celebration Raleigh offers the opportunity to purchase this unique design that departs from the traditional in several ways while still retaining the classic styling cues that denote Conway Stewart's dedication to the company's rich heritage.
The Conway Stewart Raleigh model celebrates the life of one of England's premier historical figures, Sir Walter Raleigh. A soldier, explorer, poet, historian, and courtier of the late Elizabethan era, Sir Walter Raleigh had a profound influence during a crucial period of English history.
Raleigh is best known for exploring the New World and was also considered one of the foremost poets of the Elizabethan era. He was born in Devon, the current home of Conway Stewart, and thus, it seems fitting to name a pen designed in the spirit of adventure after the great man.
The Raleigh is a unique design, departing from the traditional in several ways while still retaining the classic styling cues that denote Conway Stewart's dedication to the company's rich heritage. A perfectly proportioned barrel accented with rich solid gold trim rings is topped with a cap that features a slight inward curve towards the top. In the place of a cap band, there is a quartet of solid gold cap rings. Both the cap and barrel end feature a classic stepped design, giving the Raleigh an elegant touch of distinction.
Conway Stewart's traditional clip makes the perfect finishing touch to the Raleigh. This is a perfect pen that is perfect in both the hand and the pocket, with a size that makes it attractive to both men and women.
The Conway Stewart Raleigh is a modern design built in the finest Conway Stewart tradition. Handcrafted from resin and accented with 18 carat gold nib and solid 18 carat gold bands, the Raleigh features a step ring configuration on the cap and barrel stoppers, never before seen on a Conway Stewart.
Crafted from hand made rich black resin and accented with intricate engraving, the Celebration Raleigh is a striking personal accessory.
