Thanks for showing them.

Way to go, girl. You have a real talent!!!

I'm surprised the lighthouse is still around. Figured it would be snapped up in a hurry by someone with deep pockets. Only thing I can figure is that you have kept it hidden away where no one could see it. Take those two pens to a show and someone is going to be willing to part with a lot of cash to have them. If you haven't already done so, you ought to pick up a couple of gold nibs from Anthony or Lou......where only the best will do !!!

Now, you need a nice wooden box to keep them in and made out of a very dark or even black wood. Then get Ken Nelson to laser engrave the same pattern as is on the pen on the cover of the box.

Those are a beautiful pair Laurie, I have to agree with Randy's recomendation because as a pair those pens have $ signs wrote all over them.[]

 

[R2]

They are a stunning pair. I suggest that since I love sailing ships and lighthouses soooo much that you send them to me for safe keeping!![][][][]

I like Randy's idea about the black box except for repeating the pattern. The art is so beautiful that I don't think it should be duplicated, keeps the value up in the art world. What ever display you use KISS. It will enhance your lovely work.

Randy, I understand your point, just don't agree.

David: I did think about that very issue when I made the comment and there is a lot of merit in what you say. I don't think there is a "right" answer for either option.
