Pen of the Week - 15th January 2018

[Phil Dart]

This week's Pen of the Week is chosen by Skin-Job and goes to the Mistral BP Olivewood by [MENTION=1531]clement[/MENTION]

Karl said "For me, this pen represents what penturning is all about. The choice of the wood, the blank, the kit and the plating all come together in a perfect little Venn diagram, a discrete bubble of balance and taste. The wood is strongly figured and interesting. The colours, though distinct, all blend beautifully into a creamy, rippled visual texture. The fit and finish is perfect, and you know you can still feel the wood.The piece flows beautifully, and you know that in person you'd just have to pick it up - Beautiful".
