Firstly, an apology on the photographs. All that I have is my blackberry and it is dreadful.

these are my first zetas, and the difference in quality between the TB cigar pens and these is like night and day. They are gifts for staff at my daughters nursery- she leaves to have a few weeks with us and grandparents prior to starting school in September.

3 are from London Plane from the Tower of London. The other is burr elm from Holyroydhouse. The elm was a bit of a nightmare to turn but I got there with this one. The previous one disintegrated! The finish is CA, and although not bad on the elm, isn't quite perfect. There is a small white mark in one burr bit, but it is just about hidden by the clip.

The camera will not pick up the chatoyance on the lacewood or the delicate grain pattern but it is beautiful to see.
