awesome pen.
Beautiful pen and beautiful photography! What is the surface you used as the background for your pen? It looks like marble, but the reflections/shadows look like there may be a layer of glass on top of the marble. Is that the case?
Thanks for the comments. You are right about the background. It is a marble tile from the big box store with a piece of Plexiglas on top of it. I use a small dab of museum wax to stop the pen rolling around. Used fabric softener sheets help keep the dust down, they work good on your dust mask as well :)
