This one done for a friend that's retiring, we've worked together for 12 years.

The cap was supposed to be the same as the body but life happened again.

Tony what a pen mate beautiful I love changing things around and yes when they happen if you can meet them with the beaut definition in the top of the pen the way you have it makes the pen unique and very special. Very much in harmony, colour and with that line reinforcing the design at the top continueing the first part with same timber in the cap masterstroke mate, so much going for it.

Peter.
