The Doctor Pen is back, reimagined with a stunning “Waves” engine-turned pattern! Following the rapid sell-out of our first Limited Edition Doctor’s Pen in early 2022, we’ve crafted a new iteration specifically for the medical professionals who have been eagerly requesting its return. This exquisite writing instrument retains all the celebrated features of the original while introducing a fresh aesthetic.
Like its predecessor, this Doctor Pen boasts a cap and barrel meticulously crafted from Sterling Silver. Each pen is engraved using a traditional engine-turning machine, a testament to timeless craftsmanship nearly a century old and still operating flawlessly. The new “Waves” pattern elevates the pen’s visual appeal, creating a captivating play of light and reflection as it turns in your hand. Authenticity is paramount; each barrel is hallmarked by the Birmingham Assay Office, guaranteeing the silver’s purity with full English hallmarks.
The pen clip is a distinctive representation of the Rod of Asclepius, an ancient symbol deeply intertwined with medicine. Featuring a serpent gracefully coiled around a staff, the Rod of Asclepius draws its name from the Greek god Asclepius, revered for healing and the medicinal arts. This emblem has been a powerful identifier of the medical profession for millennia, adding a layer of profound symbolism to the Doctor Pen. Further emphasizing its heritage, the cap end is engraved with “The Doctor’s Pen – Made in England,” proudly declaring its British origins.
Harnessing the Natural Antibacterial Power of Silver
Science has long recognized silver’s remarkable antibacterial properties. Silver ions work at a cellular level, permeating bacterial membranes and binding to essential components, effectively halting bacterial proliferation. This inherent quality has led to silver’s widespread use in medical applications, from wound dressings to door handle coatings aimed at minimizing germ transmission. In designing the Doctor Pen, the choice of Sterling Silver, composed of 92.5% pure silver, was a deliberate decision to leverage these natural antibacterial benefits.
The Pleasure of Writing with a Doctor Pen
While physicians may not always be lauded for their penmanship, the Doctor Pen is designed to enhance every writing style. The 18ct gold nib ensures a consistently smooth ink flow, making each writing session a genuine pleasure. Expertly balanced in hand, this pen is engineered for extended periods of comfortable writing.
Fountain Pen or Rollerball – The Choice is Yours
The Doctor Pen caters to individual preferences, available as both a Fountain Pen and a Rollerball. The Fountain Pen offers a selection of Extra Fine, Fine, Medium, or Broad 2-tone 18ct gold Conway Stewart nibs. The Rollerball provides the smooth, flowing ink experience akin to a fountain pen, with the everyday convenience of a ballpoint, available with blue or black ink cartridges. For the ultimate writing set, consider acquiring a matching Fountain Pen and Rollerball pair. Alternatively, a conversion kit allows you to easily transform your Doctor Fountain Pen into a Rollerball and vice versa, offering unparalleled versatility.
