Fillibella

[SteveAxelrod]

This is my second Fillibella and also the second time I've made a pen with a blank of cast Chrysanthenum flowers. I couldn't resist taking some closeup shots of the Chrysanthenums...what a cool blank!

Very pretty. Did you cast the blanks yourself? I would very much like to purchase one or two.

It always amazes me seeing what you guys can do with casting. Beautiful.

Anytime you incorporate Mother Nature into the pen it is truly one of a kind. Very unique and well done!

Awesome wouldn't describe it. Makes we want to quit pen turning and take up knitting.

Thanks all for the nice comments! I bought the Fillibella pen kit and the "Chrysanthemum Flowers in Navy Blue" blank from ExoticBlanks. Sorry, I meant to mention that I didn't cast this blank myself, but assuming you can get your hands on some potpourri grade chrysanthenums I wouldn't think it would be a hard blank to replicate. On the other hand, $7.75 is a very reasonable price for a custom blank. I bought this one before I started playing with casting.

A very different and beautiful blank! I like the pairing too. Nice work!!

That is indeed a wonderful pen! I do like the hardware matchup with the blue!

This has got to be one of the coolest blanks I've seen yet!
Very nice pen too
