Fabulous looking pen as usual Robert. My favorite is still the cappuchino curls. They all are pen art but that one just stands out to me.

Absolutely beautiful with your usual degree of attention to to even smallest detail!! The finial insets really stand out with this one due to the sharp contrast in colors. Thanks for showing! Regards, Doc

What Doc and Chuck said about the contrast in colors, the Mandarin yellow Duofold is one of my favorites your version is makes me want either yours or an original.....no make that yours.

Without looking at the posting penmaker I knew that you cut this pen, These are beyond
definition, I am jealous and inspired at the same time. The level of craftsmanship and
consistent detail is amazing. Call it what you want but in my world that's Robert's Pen
Love the color choice,Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful
