I love the material on mine. Interesting doing the section in ebonite instead of the same material, would make it lovely to hold I imagine!

I think that like holding a vintage pen with the ebonite section.

Thank you John! I can't wait for it to reach you.

Thank you Josephine! In retrospect I would have made the original (yours :)) with a black ebonite section as well. It has such a warm feel to it that a material like this really begs for it. If you feel like you really would prefer an ebonite section for your pen send me a message and we'll see what can be done.
