Purpleheart trees are native to the tropical rainforests of Central and Southern America and Brazil. They are medium-sized to large trees growing to 30–50 m (100–160 ft) tall, with trunk diameters of up to 1.5 m (5 ft). The tree is prized for its beautiful heartwood, which when cut, quickly turns from a light brown to a rich purple color when exposed to sunlight.

This pen is supplied with a black Parker style refill (installed) and a black velvet drawstring pouch. Pen boxes can be purchased separately.
