Blue/gray striated acrylic

[jalbert]

Here's an octagonal pen I made from a blue/gray striated Beartooth acrylic. It has double start threads so the pattern on the acrylic always lines up. I decided to make a low-profile finial from argentium silver, because sometimes I enjoy doing that rather than make a finial from the same material as the cap. The clip is also argentium silver, which I cut out with a jewelers saw. It uses a jowo #6 nib. It's about 5" long.

Beautiful pen !!!

I like how you have tapered the barrel but not the cap .... that looks great with the straight striations.

Cap is tapered. Less evident as it's considerably shorter than the barrel

Very nicely done and good choice of blanks for this application.
