AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The pen is in very good condition, maintaining an excellent aesthetic and functional level.
The body and the cap in black resin retain a deep, uniform shine, with only very slight micro-scratches visible only under detailed inspection and consistent with their age, without affecting their overall presence at all.

The gold-plated finishes are well preserved, with no material loss or significant wear; the engravings are sharp and perfectly legible.
The 18K (750) solid gold nib is in very good condition, clean, well aligned, and without visible deformations, retaining its original markings intact.

Overall, it is a carefully maintained, balanced piece that is fully suitable for both use and collection, with an overall condition clearly superior to what is usually seen in models of this era.

It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.

Good auction!
