Blue or Green Ebonite?

[18111]

Hi all,

I thought I bought blue ebonite from Exotic Blanks but it looks more like green to me, don't you think? Either way, I like the color.
This is my first large (14 mm threads) size and 5th kitless and it's perfect fit in my hand. Thanks for looking and as always c&c welcome. Yoshi

Looks sort of blue-green (or teal) on my laptop's screen.

Very nice pen! Love the profile.

I've got a rod of that stuff. Mine is a bit deeper blue that your pic. Do you know where your ebonite came from? Vintage or not?

And when you compare it to their green, it is somewhat "bluer"---but yes, it does look green---don't tell the Germans that, or you will get a long lecture about the type of dust it takes to make ebonite (DAMHIKT)

Thank you for the kind words.
It's from Exotic Blanks. I don't think it's vintage.

It's more green than blue but still it looks great. Well done!
