AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A0000003178

This Montblanc 254 is presented in very good overall condition, notable for the integrity of its materials and the proper preservation of its original components.

The body and the cap in black resin maintain a deep, uniform sheen, with slight surface micro-signs typical of use and the passage of time, visible only under close inspection. No cracks, fissures, or deformations are observed.

The cap fits properly and retains its original shape. The clip and gold-tone rings show light, uniform wear, in keeping with the pen’s age, with no corrosion or significant loss of plating. The Montblanc emblem on the cap finial remains well defined.

The original Montblanc 14C nib, with an OB (broad oblique) point, is in very good structural condition, with no cracks or deformations, with the tines properly aligned and the imprint sharp. The ebonite feed complements the nib well and remains intact.

The piston-based loading system has been verified and operates correctly, with smooth movement and good sealing, enabling efficient ink loading.

Overall, it is an original, well-preserved and fully functional specimen, suitable for both collection and regular use, faithfully representing the quality and character of the Montblanc post-war 2xx series.

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

Good auction!
