Elegant Sierra



This pen is soooo easy to make.  Accepts Parker style refills and is a very classy pen.  This pen comes in many different metal finishes.  One single tube covered in clay and only one part requires pressing -- the rest are threaded.  It has a nice heft, but isn't a large pen -- great for men or women.
This one was made with 2 colors -- red and black -- layering the colors and making a textured pattern (impressing one color into the underlying color) then slicing off layers to get a 2-tone pattern.  The black with the red really stands out and looks great with the black titanium finish on the pen shown.  Depending on the process you choose to mix the colors (or not mix any colors) will depend on the length of time required to produce a pen like this.  One clay barrel is going to take less time than a pen with 2 barrels, but the process of getting this clay effect will add production time.
