It is rare that any wood becomes available from a National Historic Site and this pen made from one of the Fair Lane Library floorboards is not only an heirloom for a bygone time but another tribute to one of the great innovators, businessman, and giants of the 20th Century. The Henry Ford - Fair Lane Pen, commemorates Ford Motor Company founder, Henry Ford, his wife Clara Ford and their Dearborn, Michigan, estate: Fair Lane. Fair Lane was named after an area in County Cork in Ireland where Ford's adoptive grandfather, Patrick Ahern, was born. The 1,300-acre estate along the River Rouge included a large limestone house, an electrical power plant on the dammed river, a greenhouse, a boathouse, riding stables, a children's playhouse, a treehouse and extensive landmark gardens designed by Chicago landscape architect Jens Jensen. The residence and part of the estate grounds are open to the public as a historical landscape and house museum and preserved as a National Historic Landmark. _______________________________________________ All pens are handcrafted by or under the supervision of our Master Pen Craftsman and are made in America.
