The wood inspiration is made from precious Wawa wood, which is cultivated on plantations on the Ivory Coast. The wood is processed in Italy; the first-class treatment prevents the wood from ripping due to dry air or swelling because of high humidity. One cubic meter of crude Wawa wood costs 700 pounds; this raw material is very important for the region. The brass parts are chrome plated and the clip is made from high-grade steel. The rollerball takes the Schmidt capless refill which is sealed to resist diffusion.
