Hi Brett,
They are two Beautiful Pens, in particular being Abalone, which is not the easiest material to use.
I love the way the Blue Epoxy creates an overriding pattern that amalgamates the Abalone strips, and yet lets the nature of the Abalone shine through. Very Clever.
But the Natural Abalone Radiates its Identity, It doesn't have to hide or carry a disguise. It is what it is "Spectacular".
These Pens are Expertly Crafted, by a True Artisan,
Congratulations,
Brian.
