My parents visited my sister and their grandchildren in Australia close on 40 years ago and one place that they visited had peacocks. As a memento they brought back some peacock feathers which were on display in a vase ever since. My sister ( a nurse ) came home to nurse my mother in her last few weeks two years ago and gave me the feathers when the house was being cleared out. They were pretty ropey looking by then but recently I sent them to a friend in England to see if he could cast them.
He in turn sent them to Marla Christensen in Canada, who worked her magic. I only expected one or two pen blanks but she was able to produce six!!!
One of these pens will go to my sister in Australia which is where the feathers came from originally. There is good iridescence which does not show in the photos.
