This series is inspired by the grains and textures of natural stones. All inkwells are made of solid natural stones. To create the matching penholder and wax seal, I used faux stone resin and Philippine Kamagong (Ironwood). The stones, due to its weight, provide the sturdiness and stability for the inkwell. On the other hand, the light material of the resin provides the matching faux stone look while keeping the pen light and comfortable to write with. I chose 6 natural stones in this series: Italian Beige, Dark Emperador, St. Laurent, Dark Serpegiante, Light Serpegiante, Athens Grey.
