PELIKAN Valentine...

[PENRob]

For the occasion of "love celebration day", the 95th anniversary of,the 100 model and tribute to the epic model in general, I post this selfmade/repaired pen today !

It's genuine Pelikan on witch the barrel was replaced by acrylic barrel and section, with ruby pearl celluloid binde.

Feel the love and love to all of you loving pens !

That's so gorgeous! It looks like an art installation. Beautiful work, especially the ruby red and black and the tortoise striped, and the, oh who am I kidding? They're all lovely.

I just adore the Friesian Cow 🙂 

The deep greens are also particularly lovely , especially since they remind you of the ordinary green marbled binde but on steroids, so to speak.

What a wonderful piece of work. Chapeau to your craftsmanship and imagination!

Dear amk, thanks for following and your appriciated comment. Indeed it take some time until you reach this level, it's 5 years now...

As you like the Dutch cow as I also call it, I add some detailed pictues together with the "steroid" greens !
