Beautiful Amos!!!
Iw asn't aware Bkerlite was so susceptible to background colour. Certainly opens up lots of possibilities.

Must admit I love the dark green one although the lighter one is nice too but for me the dark green seem to be more alive. Just my opinion in reality, I wouldn't say no to either one of them .
Excellent pens and beautifully worked.
Reality is no background music.
Cheers John

Both look very nice. But If I had to choose between the 2, the dark green one would be my choise.

Love both pens Amos, that Bakelite certainly has a character all its own.
Like others I prefer the darker one, but that takes nothing away from the lighter one.

I would like to try a very bright green colour, but it is a very expensive blank and I think it was one off!!! Amos
