Hello again,
Last pen to finish this Friday.
Amboyna wood with Urushi, Ebonite section with Urushi- sakurakawa nuri or cherry tree bark.
Happy weekend.

Teo, I looked at the pictures before reading (don't we all do that) and immediately noticed the ebonite section in "bark". We have a couple of boxes from our time in Japan - in which the colors look exactly like the section and are covered in real bark.

Excellent!

Oh you have real Sakura bark that it's covered with fuki urushi or tamenuri Urushi. It's not practical and impossible to use it on my pens so I'm using the sakurakawa nuri technique.
Here an other example, from Instagram

Beautiful! I love the contrast of the dark pores with the rich bright wood tone.
