Description from the seller
A0000003687
The pen is presented in very good condition, showing a generally clean and well-cared-for appearance that reflects moderate and respectful use over time.
The body and cap, metal with a fluted palladium finish, retain a uniform and elegant shine, with the longitudinal texture perfectly defined. There are light micro-scratches from normal handling, but no dings, dents, or relevant wear. The overall presence is very attractive.
The black resin section is in excellent condition, with a glossy surface and no cracks or deformations. The threads and cap-fitting operate correctly, providing a firm and secure closure.
The clip is the Sheaffer with the emblematic White Dot, appearing straight and well-aligned, maintaining proper tension and functionality.
The integrated 18K solid gold nib, one of Sheaffer’s most iconic features, is in very good structural condition, correctly aligned and undented. It retains its crisp engravings and offers an impeccable aesthetic.
The filling system works with Sheaffer cartridges or a converter, and this piece is delivered with its converter, allowing easy use with bottled ink. The mechanism has been inspected and works correctly.
The pen has been tested and prepared for use, ensuring proper operation.
Conservation recommendations
To keep the pen in optimal condition, it is recommended to use high-quality inks specifically designed for fountain pens, avoiding pigmented or highly saturated inks. If it will not be used for an extended period, it is advisable to clean it with warm water, dry it properly before storing, and keep it in a dry place, protected from direct light and extreme temperatures. When operating the filling system, it should always be done gently to preserve the internal mechanism.
It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.
Happy bidding!
