A while back I got some vintage galalith -- it's one of the first manmade materials, created by extracting casein (a protein) from milk and processing it with formaldehyde. Usually it has pale "stripes" of opaque and semi-clear cream shades along the length of the rod, but this particular batch has a beautiful added twist to the pattern. I've never seen anything quite like it.
Anyway, a friend from high school asked me to make a pen for him to give his wife as an anniversary gift ... here's what I came up with.
