AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Babele, we don’t ship to the US.
Pen made of solid silver, entirely hand-engraved.
The cap represents the Tower of Babel (Ziggurat), while the shaft is inscribed with 'Babele' in various languages.
The process is highly complex; beyond engraving, the stem is handcrafted with enamel by artisan goldsmiths and enamellers, requiring skill in these techniques.
On the clip, King Hammurabi is depicted, famous for applying the law of retaliation.

Seller's Story
All Urso Luxury collections are unique in style and craftsmanship. Rooted in Italian tradition, Urso Luxury is quite the opposite of today's mass production operations. Giuseppe, his brother Lucio and his son Riccardo are creators of most of Urso's designs. While the brand relies mostly on local artists and workshops, they are also working to incorporate the latest technologies collaborating with partners in other parts of the world. Urso Luxury's goal, however, is to continue to use the traditional Jewelery making methods, which are increasingly endangered in the industry, that make their thoughts so special and sought after.
It requires 100 operations, superb artistry, master craftsmen, and a lot of love in a week to produce an Urso Luxury pen. In today's mass-production Urso Luxury is the epitome of slow handmade designs, bringing the best local artisanal skills and techniques to produce world-class luxury accessories
