Luxurious olive wood pen - Ipazia Ulivo - M'Art

Original design combined with the highest quality wood is synonymous with the M’Art brand. It is also the registered trademark of handcrafted wooden pens that have been on the market for several years. M’Art's goal is to create a product capable of satisfying emotional needs and rediscovering the pleasure of owning an object of rare beauty, one that is pleasing to the eyes and hands. All handcrafted products result from meticulous market research of the best mechanisms to offer the customer an excellent pen and pencil. The wood is selected from those commonly used in luthiery, characterized by exceptional hardness, beauty, and elegance, and is particularly suitable for the production of elegant writing instruments. Each stage of production of handcrafted wooden pens is strictly manual and concludes with thorough quality control. The result, in line with expectations, brings the joy of owning a "unique" item, as one would expect from a handcrafted masterpiece.

It is delightful to seek wood of absolute value, carefully selected and sourced from around the world. Identifying the various mechanisms of these writing instruments, which can synthesize weight and balance to make them pleasant to use, is very complex and satisfying. Creating handcrafted wooden pens requires special skills and knowledge of techniques, raw materials, and tools, allowing one to reach the final product through a rather lengthy process that also demands great attention. In the production of handcrafted pens, any small mistake, especially during turning, can mean the loss of an element and the need to start over. Preparing wooden pens involves inserting a brass core, which represents the pen's skeleton. Turning, finishing, and assembly are the subsequent processing stages. Finishing is a particularly important phase, where the pen's scratch resistance, coverage, and gloss will be determined. At the end of the process, meticulous quality control will be conducted.

INTELLIGENCE IN HANDS
Each handcrafted M'Art pen is a jewel resulting from the harmonious integration of sought-after wood from around the world, top-quality mechanisms, style, and sobriety, and a very high level of craftsmanship. From the meeting of these excellences arises a unique and very elegant product. M'Art's production includes a full range of wooden pen and pencil models, including fountain pens, rollerball pens, ballpoint pens, gel pens, and pencils with variable stroke and softness.

PENS AND PENCILS WITH MARBLE EFFECT
Following the flattering results achieved in the production of wooden pens and pencils, the company has embarked on a new, special artisanal production on the same models. These are hand-painted pens and pencils with a marble effect in 5 different colors depending on the chosen marble (orange, blue, gray, black, green). This process, very delicate in the execution phase, proves to be very durable and scratch-resistant once finished. The artisan creates original and prestigious items of great beauty and never banal. M'Art is an Italian registered trademark of wooden pens and pencils, best representing the artisanal production of writing instruments, unique and recognizable items.
 
Wood is the central element of M'Art's handcrafted pens, and therefore its selection represents extraordinary strength. The synthesis of painstaking research of natural essences from many parts of the world and the long and careful aging of this living, unique, and versatile material allows for the creation of magnificent writing instruments. All in full respect of nature and the environment. Every stage of the production of handcrafted pens, from turning to engraving the brand, is strictly manual. If we add to this great attention to detail and careful quality control, we obtain a product of extraordinary reliability, of unquestionable value, capable of satisfying the aesthetic taste of even the most demanding.

They have been selected for their specific properties of hardness, beauty, density, and seasonality, making them ideal materials for producing writing instruments of exceptional quality.

Bubinga
Originates from equatorial Africa, more widespread in countries surrounding the Gulf of Guinea. Despite being a very hard wood, it is easy to work with. Bubinga is widely used in violin making. Its color ranges from rather light brown-pink to dark purple-brown, has a fine texture, and is not too porous, often with visible veins.
Cocobolo
Grows in Central America from Mexico to Panama. The dark orange color is characterized by dark brown veins. It is a wood quite difficult to work with and glue due to its oiliness. It has roughly the same stiffness and hardness properties as ebony and is widely used in luthiery.
Ebony

Macassar Ebony
Originates from Equatorial Africa and Asia and is a very dense wood in black or dark brown color, with more or less visible whitish or reddish veins or shades and a fine grain. It is very dense and requires very slow seasoning. It is highly sought after and very expensive depending on its rarity.
Padouk
This is African mahogany and looks very similar to briar, especially madrona briar. Figured Sipo Pomellè is an extremely hard wood that stands out with bright streaks that give it color and reflections that give it a cloud effect.
