Classic Brown Classic :-)

I have been waiting for a chance to use this lovely material again, and finally got the chance.  This lovely resin, which is made in Italy, sold as 'Classic Brown', is much more than just brown flakes.  The lighter pearly flakes along with the flecks of green, combined with the iridescence of the resin make it truly gorgeous.

I was asked to use this material in making one of my 'Classic' style pens (and so, 'Classic Brown Classic'...)

While it is made using my standard sizing for the nib section, it is nonetheless a fairly big pen.  Here I have it posing, capped and uncapped with a Pelikan M600 and a Visconti Wall Street for size reference.  It might be a reasonable comparison with an M800, but alas - I don't have one to picture it with.

The nib pictured here is a broad nib, which is slated to be ground to a smooth stub before shipping.

I hope it serves its new owner well!

Thanks for looking!
