AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The fountain pen is in very good overall condition, with an excellent level of preservation consistent with a high-end writing instrument. The body and cap feature a shiny chrome finish, maintaining a high level of luster, with no visible dents, dings, or deformations.
The gold details (clip, rings, and tips) retain their original tone, with minimal wear consistent with careful use. The clip remains firmly in place and properly aligned.
The 14K solid gold nib, medium point, is in very good condition, with no deformations or damages, properly aligned, and providing smooth, fluid writing.
Important notice
The cap features a mark or inscription from the previous owner, not visible in the photographs but discernible to the naked eye. This mark is purely aesthetic and does not affect the functionality or structural integrity of the pen, which is why it has been taken into account in the overall valuation.
The cartridge/converter loading system functions correctly. The original included converter is in good condition.
The original Cross case and accessories show normal signs of storage, with no structural breaks.
Good auction!
