First Attempt in Brazilian Rose Wood. The stand in the second picture is a piece of Yew

That looks pretty close what we had to use in primary school Vic.

Nice pen Vic, but,
You keep the pen........gimmie the stand!!

Such a fine nib, beaut turned holder housed in a lovely pen rest. Recently I decided my seldom use of fountain pens I use them as dip pens it works so well that is what I will do in future.

Yew is spectacular, love the olde fashioned setting with the candle holder. You need a larger light box though.

Stunning mate But I would have thought a stone slab chisel and mallet would be more your era
