About this Product
This one-of-a-kind rollerball pen is turned from natural walnut burl, a highly prized wood known for its swirling grain, rich earth tones, and striking organic movement. This particular piece features dramatic grain contrast, pockets of curl, and unique patterns that give it visual depth from every angle.
The pen includes a smooth rollerball tip and a cap that clicks securely into place—no threading, no twisting, just a clean snap that makes using it feel effortless. The polished hardware gives structure without distracting from the real star: the wood.

Meet the Maker
Hi, I’m Chad—the craftsman behind every piece at StoneWood Designs.
I’ve been a woodworker for as long as I can remember. Whether building something practical or designing something purely for beauty, I’ve always found joy in shaping raw materials into lasting, meaningful objects. In recent years, that passion led me to the lathe—where form, texture, and purpose come together in a way that’s both meditative and endlessly creative.
From pens and bowls to holiday décor, kitchen tools, and desk accessories, everything I make starts with one thing: exceptional material. Living in Las Vegas means I have to work hard to source great wood—but I see that as a feature, not a bug. I spend hours tracking down the right pieces, often working with other small makers across the country to find sustainable, unique woods and hybrid materials. I pride myself on pairing each one perfectly with its hardware, so the design feels complete—intentional from start to finish.
If I had to sum up what I hope you feel when you see or hold one of my pieces? Evocative. Whether it’s a pen that reminds you of the ocean or a bowl that feels rooted in tradition, I want it to spark something. A memory. A mood. A sense of connection.
Supporting handmade work keeps these skills alive—and keeps small makers thriving. I’m proud to be part of that, and I’m grateful you’re here.
How it’s Made
This pen began as a solid block of walnut burl, selected specifically for its high figure and dramatic character. Turned freehand on a lathe, the blank is shaped to showcase the natural movement and transitions within the wood grain—no templates, no duplications.
After shaping, it’s carefully sanded and polished to a smooth gloss that brings out the intricate depth and tone variation walnut burl is known for. The magnetic cap system is installed by hand for a secure and satisfying snap fit.
