This pen has already been through the fire — on purpose.
Laura burned the wood, most likely mahogany, then burnished and finished it, letting the char deepen the grain to smoke and umber. What survives a controlled burn is what was densest to begin with; the flame just tells the truth about the wood.
The color cannot fade further and will not try. The rest of its life should be easy.
One made. No second.
