Turquoise Ebonite
After having a lot of orders over the holidays I am finally getting to where I can make a few custom pieces again. This one is turquoise ebonite with a 5 mm bock nib. Triple start 12 mm threading on the cap. Comments and critiques are welcome and thanks for looking.

I think that the addition of the hourglass transitions greatly improve an already great looking pen.

It also looks quite inviting to the hand. Is it as comfortable to hold as it looks?
Seems like it would mold itself into the crux of the thumb naturally.

It really does handle well. This is only the 2nd pen done with this shape, I like it also. I guess I need to create a line name for my pens if I am going to do them in a series or set.

That is a fine looking pen the hour glass series might be an appropriate name looking at you signature.

That is amazing craftsmanship. I can find something jaw dropping at least once or twice a day on this forum. This is one of those!
Re: Turquoise Ebonite
That's a really gorgeous pen. I am going to sit here and stare a while.

Yep ... What TerraNoir said.
Sealed for your protection.
