Bloodstone is a striking Bockworth rollerball, defined by its deep crimson body threaded with dark, flowing veins that appear suspended beneath a glass-like polish. The contrast between the rich red and inky black creates a sense of depth and movement, giving the pen a molten, almost liquid character that changes subtly as it catches the light.
 
Finished with sleek black hardware, Bloodstone has a confident, grounded presence in the hand. The Bockworth design offers a reassuring weight and excellent balance, making it comfortable for extended writing while still feeling purposeful and substantial. This is a pen that doesn’t shout for attention, but commands it all the same.
 
Bold without being brash, Bloodstone is a pen for those who appreciate strong materials, clean lines, and writing instruments with real character.
 
Maker’s Story
Bloodstone was made with the intention of letting the material lead the design. As the blank was shaped and polished, the dark veins within the crimson acrylic revealed themselves more clearly, giving the pen its distinctive, stone-like depth and natural flow.
 
As with all my pens, Bloodstone was made slowly and deliberately, turned, finished, and assembled entirely by hand. Each stage focused on achieving a flawless surface and a balanced feel, ensuring the final pen not only looks striking but performs beautifully as a daily writing instrument.
 
No two blanks ever behave the same, which means every Bloodstone pen is unique — a one-off piece shaped by both material and maker.
