A while back Dawn (Pr_Princess) and I collaborated on a pen in a competition held at Eagle's Woodworking. I got the idea driving to work early one morning. I was thinking about one of my segmented designs and imagined it as a lattice with flowers growing and climbing up the lattice.
I put part of my Sine Wave design in a piece of Alternate Ivory from Exotic Blanks. I only inlaid one side of the blank to allow Dawn more room for her work. Then I drilled, tubed and turned the blanks and mailed them to Dawn.
Yesterday I received an order from Exotic Blanks and it also had the finished pen. Wow!!!! Wow!!!! When I sent the blanks to Dawn they were just pieces of alt. ivory with some squiggly aluminum bits in them. What she sent me back was a work of art!!!
The pen is gorgeous Dawn, you have an incredible talent. The detail in the blue roses is amazing. Thanks so much.
The pen is a full size Gent with a Heritage Nib.
