A relative passed away recently and left to me, among other things, his collection of fountain pens. There are 15 in all, and they are stored in this case. As I know very little about any of this, I am wondering if someone here might be able to tell me what kind of wood this case is made of. I think it is inlaid burl wood, but I have no idea what the inlay may be. The cabinet is very highly coated with a clear varnish of some kind, similar to clear coat on an automobile. AS for the pens themselves, I will be photographing each of their bodies and nibs and will post those in the pen section of the forum. In the meantime, any help or ideas about this cabinet are much appreciated.
