AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Namiki Yukari Maki-e fountain pen is presented in very good condition, maintaining intact its original elements and the artisanal quality typical of the Namiki brand.

The lacquered body preserves a deep, even shine, with the handmade maki-e decoration well defined, with no material losses, chipping, or cracks in the lacquer. The decorative motifs maintain excellent color intensity and proper adhesion of gold powder, with only very slight signs of use visible only under detailed inspection, typical of a piece carefully used or stored.

The solid 14K gold nib is in excellent condition, properly aligned, with no deformations or noticeable wear at the tip. The surface keeps the original engravings well and shows no corrosion. The writing system is functional and the nib responds smoothly and regularly.

The cartridge/converter filling system works correctly. The threads and joints fit precisely, with no play or cracks.

The gold-plated metal elements (clip and rings) show a good level of preservation, with present shine and no significant losses of plating.

Overall, it is an authentic, complete and fully functional pen, ideal both for collection and occasional use, preserving the artistic character and elegance that distinguish Namiki Yukari models.

Happy bidding!
