What color is this Moore Pen?

[SamChevre]

I think this is a 94-A, but I see no marking indicating that.  The color is impressive, and neither striped nor marbled--what is this pattern called?

I have a Moore identified as a 94-A, and it has a very similar finish as yours (except mine is black and silver, yours appears to be black and green pearl). However, mine has a completely different clip and cap band -- maybe the model changed over time. Anyway, I called it "black and silver moiré" in my database, but I think I made that up. It's not quite moiré as I understand the term. I have another 94-A but it's striated instead of this kind of pattern. I have a 92-A that still has the model sticker on it, and it's very similar only thinner.

 

David Nishimura has some Moore's for sale, including one he identifies as a 94-A, and that's what mine look like. I think I decided that's what I had based on comparing it with his listing at the time (6 months ago). Here's the link to his current Moore listings: https://www.vintagepens.com/catill_Moore.shtml

Some Big Ben pens have a similar looking pattern called paint brush.

I see Vintage Pens gas one with with the segments aligned to the pen length which they call "longitudinally striated" so on that basis I would tend to call this "randomly striated".

This is also one of the vintage Conway Stewart patterns, called “Hatched”. There are green hatched, red hatched, blue hatched...

Rob Morrison, a well known expert on Moore pens, refers to this color on a Moore pen as "Green Shell."

Whether this is his term or is the actual name used by Moore, I do not know.
