Description

Own an extraordinary piece of American history with the Signature White House Rollerball Pen, meticulously crafted from authentic White Oak removed during the White House's renowned 1950 Truman Reconstruction. This unique piece, encased in heirloom-quality Rhodium and Black Titanium, features elegant engraving that reads "The White House," affirming its historic origins. This pen is an exquisite collectible and functional work of art.


This Signature Series, produced by History Salvaged, was created using Witness Wood® gathered from the very materials removed during both the 1927 Coolidge expansion and Truman’s full-scale 1950 renovation. When Calvin Coolidge undertook the 1927 project to expand the attic, it set off structural shifts that led to Truman’s sweeping reconstruction. To help fund these critical renovations, select wood and materials were made available to the public, and History Salvaged has since acquired these pieces to craft this exceptional collection.


Made in the USA, each pen reflects a rich legacy, with Mid-Atlantic Heart Pine that echoes the heritage of the White House itself. This rollerball pen is more than a writing instrument; it's a historic memento, carrying the timeless legacy of a home that has housed every U.S. president since 1800.
