Gold Cigar dressed up in California Olive Burl

Here is one I did yesterday while it was fairly nice. A gold cigar dressed in California Olive Burl. This is nice stuff to work with. All C & C are welcome.

Wow Dan, the finish on that looks almost like it was cast in acrylic. Nice pen.

VERY LOVELY pen !! The wood and the hardware complement each other very well.

What finish did you apply, please ?

Thanks so much Tim and MAL for the nice comments. Mal I used about 20 coats of Wood Turner's Finish (WTF) I guess I should have put that in the post.

That's a beautiful pen. Olive wood has so much character, and burl is just that much better. :good:

That was going to be my question till I read down and saw your 2nd post.
