Description from the seller

Waterman's Ideal "Gold Ring" - Ebonite and 9k Gold - 1927
Exquisite Waterman’s fountain pen model "Gold Ring" (identifiable by its wide band) made of high-quality carved black ebonite (BCHR). This piece is an excellent example of British craftsmanship from the late 1920s.
The design stands out for its central band of solid 9 carat gold, engraved with the date 1927 and with the corresponding legal hallmarks ("375" and the initials of the goldsmith "FDW"). The cap incorporates the iconic "Clip-Cap" with an 18k gold finish.
Equipped with a Waterman's Ideal No. 2 gold nib, offering the smooth and flexible writing experience characteristic of the brand. The ebonite body maintains a sharp engraving and a deep black color, indicating excellent resistance to light.
It is carefully packaged in a generic box with tracking number and insurance.
