Hellooooo everyone, its been a while!!:whistling: Hope you are all well.

I thought I'd share my recent leather-bound pens with you as I wanted to try out Phil's new Etesia and Headwind kits as they both allow for chunkier material on the tube which is ideal for me as I can now use thicker leathers :banana:

The Headwind (gunmetal) is in buffalo leather and the Etesia (chrome) is in African goatskin. I think my favourite is the the Etesia, the goatskin really pops against the chrome.

Beautiful work, Christine.:thumbs::thumbs:

As a Buff I will have to say the buffalo leather one.:tongue:

It is interesting on how the colours of the African animals are so different to what you would imagine, I will have to check out my mates buff next time I see him.
he gave me a couple of warthog wallets, they are so much light to what I thought they were.:thinks:

Thank you all for your kind comments, :kiss: I'm in the process of ordering some real snakeskin, but I haven't worked with it before, so I'll see how it goes! :whistling:
