CUSTOM EBONY FOUNTAIN PEN

MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT CLOSED END PENS, BEAUTIFUL SOLID BLACK PIECE OF EBONY, NOT A HINT OF BROWN, ALSO VERY OLD PIECE, I HAVE HAD IT FOR OVER 5 YEARS AND MY FRIEND THAT GAVE IT TO ME HAD IT LEFT FROM A JOB HE DID OVER 20 YEARS AGO, YES IT WAS VERY DRY BUT SWEET TURNING, AND FINISHED WITH CLEAR WAX, NICE SATIN FINISH.

Thanks for the comments, I agree, I think it is one of the coolest pens, but I am a just a tad biased, alright, alright, a lot biased...
Thanks for picking it for the POD Kurt
FYI- I've uploaded a picture of it unopened... and standing... not a great picture though, sorry.

As a person who makes a habit of only writing with wood fountain pens, I have to say this may be the finest I've seen. Simple, elegant, but as far as I know, unique. Very well done!

It's unique for sure Don, I don't do duplicates, I may make another similiar shape, but it will be a different wood.
And thank you for your comment.

Thank you, and sorry for the delay in the response, I have been extremely busy and could not afford the luxury of spending several hours on this site looking at all the great works posted in the gallery and reading the forums.
