Custom Mokume Gane Fountain Pen

[wizard0705]

Made from a 5/8" triple twist rod of copper, brass and nickel silver Mokume Gane. I really enjoy working with this material. It is fun to watch it take shape. I still marvel at watching the patina form..included a picture after just machining but prior to polishing, prepping with Feldspar, and patina application. Thought I would try to make a fountain pen with a more classic appearance with rounded finial/ends. Sports a #6 fine Bock Nib. Had fun making it. Doc 😊

Exquisite material and beautiful shaped pen, bravo wizard !

I've also made a few pens in a different Mokume Game material but stopped using it because of its brittleness….

I love that material...I had a pair of earrings made from it but one disappeared. I’m still bitter.
