LOve the clip design though I would like to see the accent in yellow or black.
For some reason I would have thought bakelight was more opaque.
Does it post?
Congratulations on the threading, NPGJ!

Bakelite, even the modern stuff which this is, comes both filled and unfilled. The dyed material is translucent at pen wall thicknesses and the filled material is opaque, so there are both kinds.
If you look at the old Shaeffer clips like this, most have the white dot. I did try one with the amber bakelite to match the pen, but it was too transparent. An easy change though for what ever best matches the pen.
This one does not post, nor do any of my custom pens. I may lose some sales, but in this case the penmaker is always in charge and I do not like posting pens. For me the posting feature detracts from the design.
