Green Swirl Cigar Fountain Pen with Matching Pen Rest



Just finished this one up last night.  Tweeted a few low-quality iPhone pics from the shop, but had an opportunity today to snap off a few better ones.





The one who ordered this pen picked out the eye-catching green acrylic, and decided on a 'Cigar Style' fountain pen.  I have done a number of these before, but I don't believe I have made a Cigar in this material.  She requested that the pen be fitted with a two-tone fine nib (steel, JoWo of Germany), which has been smoothed and tuned to write well.  The pen equipped with a converter to load with ink.




The buyer also requested a matching pen rest, so I used the end-pieces of the blanks for the barrel and the cap, added a decorative band of black acrylic in the centre, and put it together.  All in all, I am pretty content with the product.

Thanks for looking!
