Metal Patina on Fountain Pens

Small distraction from fly fishing and rod building...:-) I have a small collection of fountain pens, which I use in my everyday work. These two were stripped and refinished, with patina finish carefully applied.

  1. Hey Vlad,

    Why am I not surprised at this, knowing you? I think this is really "kool"!! The artisan in you...

    Long time back now, before I got married I had a beauty of a girlfriend (really) who's name was also Judy. She was a college T.A. in Literature. Met her thru a buddy. Anyway she liked pens too and I bought us both matching fountain pens made from the decommissioned Queen Elizabeth 2nd (QE2) and loved to write with them.I miss my pen. I left it in her apt. when things went south.... Your post here made me grin! Loved it... Later man.
