Serpent Ballpoint Pen Kits
Craft a pen that strikes with personality — the Serpent Ballpoint Pen Kit by Penn State Industries wraps every component in richly detailed serpent imagery. A coiled, scaled snake adorns the clip, a serpent finial crowns the cap, and an engraved scale nib carries the theme all the way to the tip. Available in Gun Metal, Antique Brass, Antique Pewter, and Gold finishes, this is a pen that turns heads before the cap ever comes off.
What truly sets the Serpent apart is the consistency of its theme — the snake motif isn't a single accent piece, it's woven into nearly every metal component. The smooth twist mechanism advances and retracts the Parker® style refill with satisfying precision, and a mid-sized profile makes it comfortable to hold for extended writing. A striking gift choice for anyone who appreciates bold, handcrafted objects.
Features
Coiled, scaled snake clip — one of the most distinctive figural clips in pen turning
Serpent finial on the cap cap for a bold, unified look from crown to tip
Tip and nib feature an engraved scale pattern that carries the serpent theme to the writing end
Smooth twist mechanism advances and retracts the refill with reliable precision
Mid-sized profile is comfortable for a wide range of hand sizes, including smaller hands
Parker® style refill included — easy to replace at any office supply or pen shop
Straight-tube construction keeps the turning process approachable for builders at any skill level
An eye-catching gift for collectors, reptile enthusiasts, or anyone who loves one-of-a-kind writing instruments
