If one is looking to indulge in the world of extreme luxury and refinement, the David Oscarson diamond fountain pen is a good starting point. The incredibly extravagant writing tool is crafted out of 18 karats yellow gold and 35 karats of precious stones that vary in hues to create a beautiful diamond-encrusted artwork of nine scallop-shaped shells. In addition, the David Oscarson creation boasts an appropriate [18 karat gold nib](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zenith7-desk-pen) and an ebonite feeder.

The process of developing the pen took the designer about one and a half years. The seaside-inspired diamond fountain pen is also one-of-a-kind, which is yet another feature that aims to justify its mind-boggling retail price. The ultra-luxurious writing tool is currently being sold on [eBay](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hypegolf-japan) for $755,000 USD.
