Who just gave my wife a Pearl Necklace (freshwater) from her export import business overseas. Ran out of boxes Wilma made this one for me in 5 minutes.

The pen is Amboyna Burl.

That’s a lovely bit of wood Peter, I wouldn’t mind seeing how she made the pen box my friend. Looks interesting.

Soon I will take pics of the box making devices,I will never forget buying the machine about 400.00 bucks and next day seeing then discounted temporarily by 40%, not a red letter day.Also makes great cards that look like timber I will photograph as well.

When we gave the pen and box they were received so well its heart warming (power of a pen). Thanks for the kind remarks on Christmas Day ,meant a lot to me.

Peter.
