About ten years ago, I was deeply impressed by an artisan in a small town in Myanmar who created beautiful work using eggshells, wood, and natural resin. Ever since I began making pens, I've wanted to experiment with similar techniques. Over the years I've tried different approaches—some with success—but I've always been searching for a way to create more robust and consistent pens with eggshell. This is my latest effort. The interesting fact of these blanks is that the eggshells are evenly distributed in the cylinder of the blanks in a flat pattern.
I did not do any special treatment to the eggshells so I suppose it is more than a contrast effect
