That would have looked just as good in the opposite direction too. Putting the white wedge on the more translucent pivot end so you could see it. Either way, I like that a lot.
Thank you! I quite agree re: switching the orientation - they both would work very well. Having a particularly nice piece of horn to work with helps a lot!
Here are more options with different scale material. The first if black horn in bone scales, the next is lead faux turtle scales, faux ivory lined in brass, lead with brown horn scales, and brass in with black acrylic scales. Many options.

I think i'm going to try, black water buffalo horn scale with white horn wedge lined with brass.
I chose to use horn just because I like it. One day I want to try gold
Here is a similar version. Black horn , Ivory wedge but sterling silver inlaid into the scales rather than just sandwiched.
