Metal Leaf

[broitblat]

I've been meaning to do this for a long time, but I'm not the first to do something like this. I think this is similar (at least in concept) to the "Florentine" blanks I've seen from Roy Robaldo.

Metail leaf is glued to the tube and cast in PR. In this case it's then dressed up in a copper Sierra.

I think this would look better in a Gold & Black Ti combination, but I didn't have one of those and this seemed like my next best choice.

Thanks for your thoughts.

I really like that! The red and gold colored leaf in there plays off the copper color really well.

I think that is a perfect match. Nice pen.

Sweet pen. I agree, the materials match the kit quite well.
