Snake pen!

[jalbert]

This is a pen that I have had in the works for a while, but finally finished today. I made the pen from black acrylic and vintage lizard skin acetate. The clip and band are fabricated from argentium. I flush set amethysts into the snake's head for eyes, and opted for a stippled texture, rather than attempting something that accurately resembled scales (I'll leave that for when I get back into wax casting).

You have numerous talents John. Bravo ! The amethysts are the wow detail.
Did you forge the argentium?

Thanks! I used argentium half round wire for the body, then melted a blob of argentium for the head and sculpted it with a dremel
