Hi,

These are a commission, a pen and pencil set, Jr Gentlemen’s from Craft Supply.

The wood is a stabilized curly Canadian maple, these are the first one I have turned from William Wood Write www.penblanks.ca, finished using mirco sanding and plastic polish, then a coat of Lee Valley conservators wax.

Jim, you are a "master" of choosing great material for your pens. The figure and features are always in perfect proportion to the final product. Bravo!
