Jr. Retro Fountain Pen Kit - Rhodium

I made two of the pens (one fountain and one rollerball - both rhodium). The plating and fit-and-finish of both pens was flawless. The round cabochon and flared ends of the cap give this pen a distinctive look that really stands out without being gaudy or "blingy". If you want a pen that is conservative, but still a bit different, this is a good choice.

The reason I gave it only 4 stars is because the cap on both pens did not screw screw onto either end of the pen very smoothly. I usually had to try a couple of times to get it to screw on correctly. I gave these pens as a gift, so I don't know if this got better or worse with use. This was probably just bad luck since the threaded plastic cap insert is probably the same one used for the other Jr. series pens (which have otherwise screwed on smoothly).
