    Picture or the pen? I have both. Richard and I both were able to by one when we visited the Sheaffer service center before it closed in 2008. Pick the pen, pick the nib, pick the box, off the shelf. Rather cool. Along with the Persimmon orange Prelude, it will be one of the last pens that I sell....

    As for the chased pattern Connaisseur, this is one that I sold a number of years ago.


    ...and just for fun, one of the pens I put together, starting with a No Nonsense Vintage. Trim and buttons came from a dead Connaisseur, I added the white dot.


    Here's the orange one that I made. I turned the ends from cast acrylic rod stock. I had to gold plate the clip.

    Can't blame you.

    Ron, do you add weight (to the barrels) as well?

    Nice dot.
