Esterbrook - Estie - Fountain pen

A0000004360

Elegant and faithful to the brand's heritage, this Esterbrook Estie in Tortoise finish represents a modern reinterpretation of classic American design, blending vintage aesthetics with contemporary performance. Its high-quality acrylic resin offers a play of transparencies and nuances in amber and brown tones that evoke traditional tortoise, adding visual depth and a distinguished presence in the hand.

The piece is in excellent condition, with virtually no signs of use. The body and cap retain a deep shine, with no significant scratches or visible marks to the naked eye. The gold elements — clip, band, and details — maintain a clean, uniform finish, with no plating loss or significant wear.

The gold-plated steel nib, at medium point, presents an impeccable appearance, with crisp engravings and no deformations. It has been inspected and adjusted, guaranteeing a smooth, steady, and reliable writing flow, ready for immediate use. The ebonite feed, distinctive of this line, ensures excellent ink regulation.

The cartridge/converter filling system (included) functions correctly, having been tested to ensure tightness and optimal performance.

It comes with its original Esterbrook case in excellent condition, as well as its outer box and documentation, adding value to the set and making it especially appealing to both collectors and discerning users.

Maintenance recommendations

Use high-quality fountain pen inks, avoid pigmented inks, rinse with lukewarm water if not used for a while, dry completely before storing, keep in a dry place out of direct sunlight and away from extreme temperatures, and operate the filling system gently.

Happy bidding!
