This entire pen was designed around the cap finial inlay, featuring an antique brass button ca. 1888 with the image of a jester or harlequin. The button is large, with a diameter of 17mm, so the pen is oversized to accommodate it. The cap is 19.1mm in diameter, and the barrel is 15.37mm at the threads & 16.3mm at the widest. The cap band and clip are brass. The materials are Ruby Water and Black acrylic, which perfectly carry out the harlequin theme with their colors. Extra space has been drilled out inside the barrel to allow for larger ink capacity in eyedropper mode, though the pen can use a converter or cartridge as well. The inside is fully sanded and polished to show off the ink sloshing around. The red part of the finial has been drilled all the way through to allow light to show through the transparency there. Though the button has an open design, it is completely sealed off from the rest of the cap. That finial was a bear to make, but it all finally came together in the end for a really nice outcome!

I'm with the rest in saying......WOW.

 

And in my colours too.

If I wanted a pen made, it would look like this.

This has got to be "my ultimate pen"

 

Now where did I put those re-mortgage documents?

I just looked at the medallion a little more closely. Is that a Pelican the Harlequin has by the neck?

Don't think it's a pelican. Jesters and harlequins are often depicted as holding staffs with a jester's face on it. I think it's more like this:

The care you take in sanding and polishing your products truly sets you apart from most other makers.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
