I thought basic black & copper would look good together so...

Simple yet elegant. One thing I learned from using all black is the fit and finish must be flawless or it doesn't work. I'm very pleased with the finished product.

Thanks for looking,
Dave

i have learned, pretty rapidly when i started selling, that simple is best and still the most elegant. the fancy, pretty curls, dots, groove, multicolored, etc. are great, but simple always ends up being the most widely admired.

The look of copper with the basic black is as you say very elegant!

Do you have any concerns regarding the copper standing up to abrasion?
 
You hit the nail on the head! It has a very dynamic look with the contrasting colors...Awesome
 
I agree with you on the copper plating holding up long term. I suspect it won't be any worse than 10k gold which I also stay away from. Occationally I will do a pen that is for my personal collection. Just a show peice to get people's attention. This will be one of those peices. Although I typically end up selling them at some point with a word of caution regarding the plating to the buyer. Oddly enough my reluctance to sell a pen always increases the buyers willingness to pay more.

Looks very nice. Any chance of getting a little smaller picture so I don't have to move the screen around to get a full view of it? Or do I have something set wrong on my computer?
 
Great looking pen. Very elegant looking. I have some slims in copper and I do not like most woods with copper.
