Somewhat different...

[Janster]

...most folks like to match the cap and the barrel and I find a bit more interesting to Mix~N~Match. Both the upper and lower are Brooks blanks. I also added a new finial to tie it all together. That little bit of extra time , I find, pays big dividend in the looks department! I really like the depth in the lower barrel, thanks Jonathan! It was actually a freebie w/my order. :big grin: This is Caballero hardware from Mr. Smith! Be well...Jan

That finial is the crown on the jewel...bravo!!

Ditto what Jim said, that finial really ties it together. Freebies are sweet but when they are that good looking really sweet!

Nice job!

Great job on this one!
Normally, I am not a fan of mixing blanks but this one with the finial works wonderfully!

Jan, You have converted me.
I love the fresh clean different colours of the Pen and Cap.
As commented by others earlier, the Finial really sets it off and ties it together.
Love the Caballero Kit, looks fantastic.
Quite a change from your Patina Shell Pens.
Great work,
Brian.

..thanks all for the nice comments. The more I look at the lower section the more intriguing it appears. The depth of the separation is really cool. The clear allows one to "see" into the blank down to the tube! Maybe someday,...just maybe Jonathan! Thanks.....Jan

Very cool! I really like the combo of blanks and the finial is sweet.

Very nicely done. I have made several of these with different blanks. Some work well, others ....
