Simple Gatsby - Rosewood

[thomgarner]

I turned one of these for a friend and liked it so much I turned one for myself.
The pen style is: Gatsby
The wood is Rosewood
The finish is: Pens Plus topped with two coats of wax.
Simple but elegant:

Very nice Thom. One of my favorite carry pens and one that I leave in my car is a simple Mesquite burl with a few coats of WOP. The grain is still just a bit evident, which I like. A Knurl, nothing fancy, but a nice wood.

I wish I could turn Rosewood - not allowed due to allergic reactions.

I always like the way rosewood turns and feels. Nice pen.
