AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Montblanc Writers Edition Leonard Bernstein fountain pen is presented in excellent condition, with an overall appearance that is very well cared for and aesthetically outstanding.

The body and cap, made of high-gloss black precious resin, maintain a deep and even finish, with no cracks, dents or structural marks. Only very light superficial signs can be observed, typical of minimal handling and visible only under careful inspection, compatible with a piece that has been carefully preserved.

The gold-plated elements, including the emblematic sun-key applied on the cap and the decorative rings with musical motifs, retain intense shine, with no plating losses or noticeable wear, standing out with strong visual presence.

The solid 18k gold nib is intact, perfectly aligned and free of deformities, with crisp, well-defined engravings. The tip shows minimal or no wear, preserving its original geometry.

The piston-fiston filling system operates smoothly and correctly, with no jams or looseness, ensuring efficient filling from the bottle.

The white Montblanc star on the cap finial is perfectly preserved, with no cracks or discolorations.

Overall, it is a very well-preserved piece, ideal for both a discerning collector and high-end occasional use, maintaining all the elegance and character characteristic of a Writers Edition.

Happy bidding!
