Description from the seller
The input appears to be a numerical code with no translatable content.
The pen is presented in very good overall condition, maintaining the intact functional elegance that characterizes the Sheaffer Imperial line, one of the most emblematic of the brand.
The Bordeaux resin body retains a deep and uniform shine, with well-saturated color and no discolorations. Light surface marks and micro-scratches are visible only upon close inspection or under direct light, typical of normal use and fully consistent with the piece's age. No cracks, fissures, or repairs are observed.
The brushed stainless steel cap is structurally solid, with the original finish well preserved. It shows gentle and uniform signs of use, mainly fine surface lines, with no deep dents or dings. The metallic clip is straight, well aligned, and firm, perfectly fulfilling its function.
The integrated Sheaffer nib, one of the main features of the Imperial model, is complete, well aligned, and in good structural condition. It shows normal signs of use, with no visible deformations or damages. The feed is intact. (The nib has not been tested recently; cleaning and recharging are recommended before regular use).
The pressure cap fits properly, closing securely and firmly.
Overall, it is an original Sheaffer Imperial, well-preserved and authentic, ideal for both elegant daily use and collectors of American vintage fountain pens, offering an excellent combination of historical design, manufacturing quality, and aesthetic presence.
It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.
Good auction!
