This pen is made from a tree which was blown over in a church yard in S.E. Qld.The church garderer told me the tree was a pepperwood.

The color pink with a brown/green fleck.Looks very attractive .

Very nice, was the whole tree like that, or is the darker stuff a water stain?

No Joash,it is not a water stain.IT is in the timber.
Joash ,I just finished reading a thread of yours on signing your work.
I use black ink with a calligraphy pen.

could be peppercorn. I have some (and so do the people who bought 3kg blank bags off me) that is pink, green, purple, yellow, red, blue, all intersected by those black zone lines, produced by the bacteria to keep other foreign types of bacteria out. Yep, racial segregation even in wood.
everything is something, for a reason:confused:
