Major burls

[Dale Lynch]

I have a customer that is wanting a pen for a guest book at her daughters wedding.Well after talking her out of buying one of my more expensive fountains she decided on a Major ballpoint.All i had at the time was a gold ti/rho but she wasn't sold on the gold grip section.I told her I'd make one with the platings reversed as well as another plating combination and she could choose which one she likes best.

One is a rho/blk ti dressed in redwood burl.The other is rho/gold ti dressed in manzanita burl. She wanted wood to go with the wooden guestbook but didn't bother telling me what kind of wood it's made from.Which would you choose?

Think I prefer the Rho/black tie.
Works best for a formal function if it's got a black tie...

I talked her out of those,I didn't like the thought of it getting damaged by everey Tom,Dick and Harry handling it if they didn't know how to use one and having her be upset cause she just got it and it get bent or something. It was only a 20 dollar difference in price anyway. Thanks

Although it doesn't seem to be favored by the majority, I'm a fan of Gold and Rhodium.
