This is my closed end competition entry.
The pen is made from black Parapan with Chrome fitting from and Omega
I did intend to have both end closed, but the cap end was so thin the black ended up looking blue, even after spraying the inside with black paint.
So I cut the cap down to the end of the tube and attached the clip and finial from the Omega.

A real smart looker Chas and perfectly constructed..beautiful in every way. Like you say Black Parapan does turn a not unattractive midnight blue the thinner you go and also in natural sunlight too.
