    Default Manu Propria Pens - Iron & Stone

    Finished Yesterday a large Eye-dropper fountain Pen, made from Ebonite, Ebonite Feed with #8 gold nib.
    The pen is lacquered with "Kuro Ishemeji Nuri" Black Stone Surface Urushi Lacquer. The ends lacquered with "Tetsusabi" Iron Lacquer. It's a unique piece

    Best regards,

    Martin

    Remarkable, as always.

    That's a lovely contrast of texture - and of course with the pen being all black, you *notice* the texture.

    It reminds me of rain and oilslick - the pen actually looks wet!

    Beautiful surface made more striking by the subtle form. I just wonder how it would look without the rings.
