Sterling Silver Custom Slimline

[mredburn]

This is the pen I will be sending to DocStram to forward on to the young lady in Australia. It is a blank from Exotics, Tanzanite I believe. Solid Sterling silver parts and a Cross refill. I will ship it out in the mail tomorrow so Doc should have it by Thursday latest. Haven't made a slimline in quite awhile, like more than 10 years. I cut the blank into quarters, that way I can make more than 1 or use the rest to segment with. It was a real treat to photograph, Silver glares badly and I must have taken close to 50 pictures to get the ones I liked. The dust kept cropping up no matter what I did. Comments Are welcome

Not bad. Nice custom work on the silver.
And a very nice gesture on your part, for the young lady.

I think it's very pretty... I hope Doc photographs the entire collection before it's sent down under. Very nice of you to help with the package for the young lady.

Thank You John and David. Im adding a couple more photos that pick up the blue underneath and around the pen. Trying out diffferent Photo arrangements.

Yes i had a snake clip I had made earlier, way earlier like 10 years ago but it was made just for slim lines, having the snake crawling down off the top of the pen. I made this one so I can attach to any size washer and turn it to what ever size pen i am making. I wanted to get it on a finished pen so I could see how it looks.

Thanks for the compliments guys.

Here is a picture of the snake coming down off the top.
