AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The pen is presented in very good condition, maintaining an elegant and solid presence, consistent with an original S.T. Dupont Olympio. The body in red Chinese lacquer retains a deep, uniform shine, with slight micro-scratches typical of normal use and the passage of time, visible only upon close inspection. No dents, cracks, or loss of lacquer are apparent.
The gold-plated finishes (clip, rings, and mounts) are well preserved, with a uniform shine and no significant material loss; only minimal fine marks compatible with careful use are observed. The engravings 'S.T. Dupont – Paris' remain sharp and perfectly legible.
The twist mechanism functions correctly, with smooth and precise operation, allowing proper loading and retraction. The clip is straight, firm, and fully functional, with no looseness.
Overall, it is an original, elegant pen that is fully suitable for both daily use and collection, with a level of preservation superior to the usual for models of this era.
It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.
Good auction!
