Bowtie Longwood
Double Twist in a Chrome plating dressed up in a piece of Walnut Burl.
Sanded to 400x, buffed with Super Fine Steel Wool and applied 6 coats of MINWAX Clear Gloss Polyurethane with no buffing or polishing on the finish required.
Twisting the nib either clock-wise or counter clock-wise extends or retracts the refill.
Turning the nib fully counter clock-wise with unscrew the Twist Holder from the Twist Mechanism to assess the refill.
