New PITH pics of NewLondon88

[MartinPens]

I received Charlie's (NewLondon88) PITH pen and my goal today is to try to do it justice with some fabulous pics!
This is an amazing pen and I hope the "powers that be" will consider it for a front page spread!

First pic is on some alabaster stone that I intend to send to Charlie to reward his hard work. (he sent me a few of his "attempts - and man it must have been tough watching them explode)

Here is Charlie's description of his work:
It is Verde Antique on a Majestic Squire. Verde is sometimes called
green marble or Connemara marble or serpentine marble. It isn't really
a marble at all, it is one of the serpentine stones that Vermont is known
for. Doesn't look like much when you see it on the ground or in the river.
But it looks nice when you grind and polish it."

The second pic is on a black reflective surface.

Charlie!, you ROCK!!! :biggrin:

This pen has a character of perennial splendour.

I'll have to look that word up... But I think I agree!!

It isn't a work of art, it was just a challenge I had to take.
The stone has a nice feel to it.. almost 'greasy' soft feel.
And I love the look. A friend makes all sorts of things out of
it .. awards, bookends, lazy susans etc. but not pens. So .. it
had to be done! Thanks for the kind words.
