I'm quite pleased with this one. Zebrano wood on a Chrome Cigar. Finished with twelve coats of CA/Blo, micro-meshed to 12000 grit then brown paper finally buffed with a dry cloth.

Thanks for all of your kind comments chaps ... It looks far better in the flesh and has a beautiful 'chatoyant' effect when the pen is turned in the light.
