Edinburgh "Argentite" – Where Silver and Gold Tell a Story
From the Edinburgh Collection | Handmade in Colorado
The Argentite fountain pen is a dramatic convergence of natural inspiration and refined craftsmanship. Its body showcases a swirling tapestry of silver, black, and pearlescent white resin—each pattern one-of-a-kind—evoking the metallic shimmer and depth of argentite ore. Polished red gold accents catch the light with every movement, adding warmth and prestige to the pen’s presence. Hand-lathed in Colorado and precision-balanced for daily writing, Argentite invites you to script with confidence and inspiration, uniting the cool luster of silver with the rich glow of red gold.
Design & Symbolism
The custom red-gold hardware celebrates Highlander’s Scottish heritage in every detail. Both the cap and barrel finials are emblazoned with a Rampant Lion – a revered national symbol of Scotland symbolizing strength, courage, and nobility. This majestic lion, depicted holding a pen atop a script, not only adds a regal touch but also optimizes weight distribution for a balanced writing experience. Around the center band, a series of understated “H” logos quietly signifies the Highlander mark of craftsmanship – a subtle reminder that we are all Highlanders at heart when putting pen to paper.
