Deep in the midst of brushes, paint and turpentine, Dante stops, suddenly aware the book has moved and his model is upright, no longer supine upon the recamier. "No, no, please remain still. How can I paint if you move about?" She reaches for her feathered pen. "Ah, Rossetti, you are too hard on me. I need to move my limbs and this book...this wonderful book. I simply must write down this passage before it escapes me." 'Let what may be Beyond remain beyond. Tomorrow has not come - tomorrow may never come - at the moment tomorrow does not exist. There is only today, and today is ours.' from 'Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam'. This brass and peacock feathered pen is the ultimate luxury for writers who prefer to scribe their stories from bottles of ink. The pen is 10 1/2" in length from the #6 brass nib to the tip of the peacock feather. The barrel is brass tubing with a brass filigree overlay and topcap. The peacock feather measures 2' x 4 3/4". A perforated brass cage encircles the lower end of the pen.
