    Pretty! The peekaboo material makes me want to see it as an eyedropper....

    Beautiful, as though the pen has gift-wrapped itself in a delicate mint filigree and yet it is part of the pen itself.

    Wow, you did a fine job! And I do mean fine (detailed) due to the inside of the pen's finishing process needing to be just as good as the exterior. Looks great.

    Beautiful work Ken! I have my interior polishing items on order so I can make mine as pretty as yours (also thanks to Renee!).
