Description from the seller
A0000003686
The Sheaffer Legacy fountain pen is presented in a state of preservation that is highly standout, evidencing minimal use and careful maintenance over time.
The metallic, striated-bodied finish maintains a uniform and deep shine, with clean reflections that enhance its elegant design. No dents, dings, or material loss are visible; only micro-scratches superficial to very light handling, practically imperceptible to the naked eye.
The cap retains its geometry and fit intact, with the clip perfectly aligned and firm, without play or deformations. The ensemble conveys solidity and precision, characteristics inherent to the Sheaffer Legacy range.
The section, in black resin, is in excellent condition, with a smooth and shiny surface, no cracks or relevant wear. The transition between materials is clean and well defined.
The integrated nib, characteristic of this model, is in very good condition. It retains its original shape, with no visible deformations, with crisp engravings (Sheaffer 18K 750) and a polished surface that correctly reflects light. The tip shows minimal wear, consistent with very moderate use, suggesting smooth and reliable writing.
Overall, the piece stands out for its excellent aesthetic presence and its conservation level above average, making it a very attractive option for both use and collection.
Conservation recommendations
To keep the piece in optimal condition, it is recommended to use high-quality inks specific for fountain pens, avoid pigmented inks, clean with warm water if not in use for a while, dry completely before storage, keep in a dry place away from direct light and extreme temperatures, and operate the filling system gently.
It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.
Happy bidding!
