Has anyone seen the wine acrylic in person? I'm liking that LE group buy pen.
I have. It is beautiful.
How deep is the red color? Does it have the depth Brian was talking about?
It was a while ago and I wasn't looking to buy it. If I am remembering correctly though, Id say yes.

I also have a high respect for Brian and his opinions, so I tend to take him at his word

Thanks kallenpj. Appreciate the info.
As I said in the video, I'm really not trying to "oversell" the depth of that pen, but at the same time, I really have to explain how even the best photos and video don't do the depth or pearlization of the pen justice.
The Ebonite has a great shine, but not so much depth or pearlization. You won't look "into" ebonite with an illusion of depth, if this makes sense. This is easier to photograph accurately and truly represent what you'll see live.
But the Pearlized Wine really is hard to photograph or video and accurately see how the shimmer plays with the light, and how "deep" the illusion is.
So yes, expect the Pearlized Wine pen to have a little more "dazzle" when you see it live.

Thanks Brian. Off to buy a pen. Really...please....make some ugly pens so I won't be tempted to buy more

The Pearlized Wine material definitely has a neat look to it. The neat thing about those materials is they don't look too flashy if you are just glancing at a pen. The magic happens when you REALLY look at the pen and if you rotate it, the "dazzle" Brian mentions really shows.

Dang...only gold furnishings.

I think I will get one of these. I don't have a Glenmont yet, and both of those choices are gorgeous.

I bought the ebonite. The pearlized wine looks great and seems to have depth much like the neon in last year's Morgan. It's jet black but when the light hits it right it really shimmers. Quite dazzling. I had no idea until I got the pen how much so as the photos were flat. Very glad Brian decided to go with video for the introduction. Very nice. Brian, bonus chunks or pen stands? :-)

Same here.. I do not own an Edison and also an ebonite pen yet.. So I get two for one!! Ordered my LEE
Were the stands with the mina?
I knew I was pushing my luck with the pen stands but doesn't hurt to ask, right? Yay! bonus chunk! Thanks Brian!

I ordered my ebonite today and would love a bonus chunk. I can hardly wait to add to my Edison family and this will be my first signature line pen. Looking forward to the successful subscription and the production run.
Gerald, I have never owned Ebonite pens but if you had to have one I had to also my friend.
So excited.

I love the ebonite Glenmont! The problem is, I already own a Edison Nouveau Premiere in Cherry Cordial ebonite. I prefer the shape of the Glenmont, so the Nouveau Premiere may soon be up for sale.
Mags, very pleased we're gonna be Edison twinsies. :-)
