This pen came to be as a collaboration between Andy Lambrou (CEO Classic Pens) and Jonathan Brooks (Carolina Pen Company) it is a one off.

This Urushi creation has to be seen the picture doesn't do it justice, theirs a lot of Mother of Pearl inlay in the work.

Andy Lambrou is one of the greatest collaborator we have come to know in the pen world and he only collaborated with the best pen brands and artisans of his generation.

Classic Pens Limited was formed in England by Andreas Lambrou and Keith G. Brown in 1987 with the objective to create exclusive fountain pens for their fellow pen lovers. Their first limited edition pen was the Classic Pens CP1, a stunning guilloche engraved sterling silver Sheaffer Targa released in 1990 as a series of 250 pens. Classic Pens collaborated with major pen manufacturers, including Sheaffer, Aurora, Parker, Sailor, and Pelikan to produce additional unique sterling silver guilloche editions in the collection. The CP collection has grown to eight editions, with the CP8 Murelli Pens, released in 2008, the first edition to use a completely new pen design, produced by Classic Pens.

Andy also collaborated with a lot of Artist an Artisans to make unique one off or small batch editions, some of his Artisan collaborators are Paul Rossi, Japanese Maki-e Artist Sunami, Ryan Krusac, Master silversmith Juan Carlos Pallarols from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Let us look at Mr Juan Carlos Pallarois pedigree for example The Pallarols family have been the top silversmiths in Argentina for 250 years. They have made many sterling silver items, accessories and house ware such as cutlery, large bowls, and art pieces. They have made exclusive pieces for the Royal families of Spain and the Netherlands. According to Forbes.com, "In 2001 he (Pallarols) began collaborating with Parisian penmaker S. T. Dupont to create 999 unique fountain pens. One made for King Juan Carlos I of Spain has a basket-weave pattern reminiscent of leatherwork. Princess Máxima of the Netherlands got one festooned with 32 rosebuds for her 32nd birthday."

The point is this Andy Lambrou (Classic Pens) only collaborates with the best in the industry.
