Ciao! I've noticed that ebonite is getting some well deserved attention lately. In the spirit of this fanfare I'd like to offer pictures of a conservative style fountain pen I recently completed in red cumberland with black ebonite finials and section. I find it is a material that is a pleasure to work with like alumilite. I have recently acquired Japanese cumberland ebonite in other colors and am looking forward to producing more fountain pens in different styles with these colors. Enjoy.
