Ballpoint and Letter Opener Set

Paweze segmented woods on Ballpoint and Letter Opener Set
Segmented woods (Padauk, Wenge, and Zebrawood), cut on an angle and bonded together, decorate the body of the pen and form the handle of the letter opener on this set.  I have dubbed this combination of woods Paweze.  The rich reddish hue of the Padauk, the deep dark chocolate of the Wenge, and the stripes of the appropriately named Zebrawood combine with the sculpted antiqued gold finish of the fittings to make this set a dignified addition to any desk.
