A quick finish up yesterday. This was originally destined as a present for a friend who put us up last summer but during sanding I noticed the material had a hairline crack about 3mm from the end into the blank, so I presented her with a Zeta in cobalt amethyst acrylic instead. I could have hidden it under the clip but I'd have known it was there and out in the wild. As it is the crack as been glued for stability, it is hidden under the clip, but this will be a garage/desk throw around for me.

Slimline only due to the material I had remaining being 12mm across after my niece specifically requested a 'thin' pen from the same material.

Fancy Slimline in Chrome with Conway Stewart Crushed Violet.

Nice material so thought I'd show it.
