Conway
Stewart’s new Raleigh celebrates the life of one of
England’s premier historical figures, Sir Walter
Raleigh.
A soldier,
explorer, poet, historian, and courtier of the late Elizabethan
era, Sir Walter Raleigh had a profound influence during an
important period of English history.
Raleigh is best
known for his exploration of the New World and was also
considered one of the foremost poets of the Elizabethan era. He
was born in Devon, the current home of Conway Stewart and thus
it seems fitting to name a pen designed in the spirit of
adventure after the great man.
The Raleigh is a
unique design, departing from the traditional in several ways,
while still retaining the classic styling cues that denote
Conway Stewart’s dedication to the company’s rich
heritage. A perfectly proportioned barrel accented with rich
solid gold trim rings is topped with a cap that features a
slight inward curve towards the top. In the place of a cap band
there is a quartet of solid gold cap rings. Both the cap top
and barrel end feature a classic stepped design, giving the
Raleigh an elegant touch of distinction.
Conway
Stewart’s traditional clip makes the perfect finishing
touch to the Raleigh. This is a pen that is perfect in both the
hand and the pocket, with a size that makes it attractive to
both men and women. For today’s busy professional the
Raleigh makes the ideal accessory. Available in a rich Jet
Black, Classic Green, traditional Lapis Blue, and the exciting
new Brown Swirl, the Raleigh fits with any personal
style.
The Conway Stewart
‘Raleigh’ is a modern design built in the finest
Conway Stewart tradition. Hand crafted from resin and accented
with 18 carat gold nib and a choice of either solid 18 carat
gold or sterling silver bands, the ‘Raleigh’
features a step ring configuration on the cap and barrel
stoppers, never before seen on a Conway Stewart.
For those with a
sense of adventure, the Raleigh is the perfect
choice.
