Greetings everyone:
Today's distraction was a pair of Elegant Monarch pens with Cross Bands from the Classic Nib. One is Gunmetal and Gold and the other (at least according to the bag) is Gunmetal and Antique Bronze, but the Gunmetal part has more of an antique silver or pewter look to me. Anyhow, I think the grain in the Olive wood is very nice. By the way, I'm sure these are Olive Wood from Israel and they were labeled as Bethlehem Olive Wood, but I got them in Jerusalem. Each blank makes 2 of this style of pen and I have several of the blanks. I think I paid something like 8 Shekels each.
Regards,
Dave
PS They are both the same size, but parallax in my photography makes the bottom one look like it is bigger.
Two pens, three different views as they were rotated.
