I would like your opinion on these two pens. A customer wanted a pen with lots of bling for his wife and couldn't afford my full abalone price so I suggested a half abalone deal which he liked. Obviously which one I ship is his decision, but I would like input on this combo going forward for my portfolio.
I originally wanted to do real casein, thinking the subtle stripes would complement the strips of abalone, but had a problem with some small pinholes as I got down to my finish diameter, so I ordered alt casein, which looks great but has more pronounced striping than the real stuff, so I turned an alt ivory as an option.
Please cast your vote for which looks better to you - considering it is intended for a female -- casein/alt casein; alt ivory; or not a good combo.
Any reply suggestions are welcome also.
Thanks,
Harry
