Black Mother Of Pearl

Hi



A client of mine wanted something black for her husband, but with a bit of eye catching quality in the light.

She choose the BMOP Tru Stone for the pen, here is the result.

WOW, that's deep! I love the reflective values of this blank and the kit truly does it justice!

Looks like a winner! I bet it looks even better in person.

Jim:
The mosaic pen looks good, but I REALLY like this one! This is one of the rare material selections I have seen that does an excellent job of "deemphasing" that black ring at the center of the Cambridge. IMHO, the Cambridge is one of the best balanced sets available, but I constantly struggle with "that ring".

You knocked it out of the park on this effort. Excellent fit and finish, great materials selection. A pen that anyone should be proud to carry.

That is a nice blank and good choice of kits. That is a winner for sure. That is the way I like to see high end kits turned, no extra bulges. You don't see the top name companies adding bulbous bulges. Thanks for showing.

Absolutely awesome pen Jim.

Beautiful pen Jim!

May I ask if you painted either the tubes, or the inside of the blank, and if so, what color?

Thanks,

Thank You,

Yes, I painted the inside of the drilled blank with metallic silver acrylic art paint from Michael's, I did not paint the tube.

Thanks John,

The clip shape really defines the amount of body shape you can enhance with, this is a straight clip and a straight body looks best to my eye.

Thank you very much.


The Black Ring, ugh, what can I say, when I ask some friends, most say they don't even notice it, it always assaults my eye.

Jim , beautiful pen, I think the black titanium/rhodium Cambridge may have added a little more to it, but its awesome nonetheless.

Very quality!!!

Thank you,

I agree a black titanium/rhodium would look better, I did not know they existed. Now I might make one for myself!

I like that. Goes with the pen hardware. Very nice looking pen.
