Thread: Mother of Pearl Sierra

Yeah, great work Froggie
good contrasting colours

I'm making my first pen tomorrow so will hopefully have a pic for everyone to see

No where near your level though
keep up the good work

Very nice Froggie, I think I like this one better then the green Abalone

froggie is it hard to turn or bit chippy?
Toni

ps sorry forgot to add...gorgeous pen. i do like the pearl the most. Might help it my favourite jewellery too

Toni,
I put a post under the Green Abalone thread about how it turns if you want to take a look at that, that will save me typing it again here.
However please feel free to ask me any questions you like about them.

Nice pen Froggie I like the look of that one, and a fine picture

top job mate.
is it really as pink as the photo makes it look?

Stirlo it depends on what the light is like, it looks brilliant white in bright light, it looks like an oyster colour in dull light and a little pinky colour under fluro light.
Thank you all for your comments.

Froggie

Very nice pen there Froggie should be a great seller with the girls

Froggie

That is one nice pen, the effect on the Mother of Pearl with the different type of lighting and the way it refracts is interesting. with the angle of the 2nd photo it looks as though you can see tube through it. I feel it is the light reflecting of the the Mother of Pearl. Looks like another to the shopping list Thanks for showing it.

Its a very interesting material, you are right Darren its appearance totally depends on the lighting conditions and that is the thing that makes it stand out I really like materials that change their appearance depending on what light they are in.
