The medieval design requires three stages of engraving: the body is cut to the background leaving the rune stone and longship in high relief, the wave and granite patterns are engraved beneath, and the smaller serpent motif is applied to the granite with the larger serpent — one of Odin's poems in runic script — raised in high relief on the cap. This fountain pen is finished in Odin - Black \/ White \/ Blue with rhodium vermeil over .925 sterling silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 10.0pt 0cm 5.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"color: #8C6F4E;\"\u003eTHE CRAFT\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt;\"\u003eHand-crafted from .925 sterling silver. Each component passes through multiple stages of precision engraving to create the guilloché pattern, then hard enamel — glass, water and metal oxides ground by hand with a mortar and pestle — is applied with a quill, kiln-fired at over 1,000 °F, filed back by hand with a diamond file and fired again until the enamel fills every valley of the engraving. The pieces are then polished and buffed to the velvet finish of true translucent hard enamel. A five-year apprenticeship is required to master the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 10.0pt 0cm 5.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"color: #8C6F4E;\"\u003eTHE COLLECTION\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt;\"\u003eThe Valhalla Collection is the 9th in the David Oscarson series of Limited Edition writing instruments.
