Manu Propria Pens & Pipes - Raden Negoro

[manupropria]

It's a while since I have posted in this forum.

Today I have finished a pair of Fountan Pen and Smoking Pipe with "Raden Negoro" Urushi Lacquer.
Traditional Negoro Lacquer with additionally applied pieces of sparkling Abalone Shell.

Best regards,

Martin
