I have recently being commissioned to supply a number of Omega Chrome Rollerballs but these must be in lighter variants of wood. My initial thought on this was that the chrome & light woods would not make a good combination, I prefer the lighter woods on a gold kit or if some figuring the black titaniums. Anyway the client insisted chrome dressed with light woods.

The customer is always right.

So todays efforts four chrome omegas dressed in lighter woods

Laburnum, London Plane, Bocote & Olivewood
