Havent posted anything for a while, so I thought I'd share this one.
It's an Imperial dressed in golden Amboyna, completed this morning, thanks to Lou
, with an 18k gold nib. Bit of a luxury, but it writes Really well!
I managed to get hold a few pieces of golden amboyna from a fellow Aussie who generously decided to share. He managed to find two pieces for me that were large enough to make the Imperial from - the matching rollerball is currently in the works using the other piece.
Enjoy the pics...
This photo was taken just after assembly, with the stock nib fitted:
Close up of the new 18kt nib (please excuse the fairly ordinary photography):
