I bought some wood from someone on here and one of the pieces was a long Turkish Walnut. Wow! What beautiful wood, not a lot of high contrast grain structure, but the chatoyancy is quite beautiful.

That is certainly an awesome blank and you did it justice. I will add that a few times I have seen some for sale on IAP and they look even more figured photos only). Quality will shine through. Very nice.
 
Beautiful pen

Do you drill and cast the resin in the blank? Is that your own casting for the section? Very nice complementing colors
Thank you. No, the Alumilite is a separate blank, this one was cast by Jason Miller, and is a beautiful blank. Most often we do use our own though.

Thank you, so Turkish Walnut can come with figure, hmmm, that would be nice. This one just wasn't the high contrast like DIW or something like that. Still gorgeous.
 
Another Beautiful Pen! I agree, you have a great eye for nailing great combinations of wood and resin!!
