'Curvy' Style Fountain Pen with Clip and Inlay

This has been a very good week for shop time :)


Here's one that I finished last night, a Curvy style fountain pen in black and white.  The request was initially for  mix of plain black and white, but the one who ordered it settled on the pearly black and white swirl for the cap, and plain black for the barrel.  The finial is in plain black to match the barrel, and the barrel itself has an end-inlay of the pearly white to match the cap.



The pen's curves are a bit subdued compared to my usual Curvy style - this was so that the cap could accommodate a clip, which it doesn't do very well with to much curve.


The pen is fitted with a broad polished steel JoWo nib, which will shortly be receiving a custom grind to cursive italic to spice up the writing.

Fill system is as with the vast majority of my pens, cartridge/converter.

Thanks for looking!
