Esterbrook - Estie Honeycomb - Fountain pen

A0000004360

Elegant and highly attractive Esterbrook Estie fountain pen in its renowned Honeycomb version, a finish that stands out for its spectacular play of transparencies and warm amber veining, evoking the texture of honey. It is a modern piece that recovers the American house’s classic aesthetic, blending tradition and contemporary functionality.

The body shows an excellent overall condition, with intact shine and no visible signs of significant use. The resin preserves its depth and chromatic richness, with no opacities or appreciable microcracks. The gold finishes —clip and rings— appear clean, with very good luster and no evident plating loss.

The gold-plated steel nib, in Stub 1.1 size, is in very good condition, without deformities or damage, ideal for expressive writing with varied line width. The feed is clean and correctly aligned.

The cartridge/converter filling system works properly, supplied with the original converter. The pen has been inspected and is operational, ready for use.

The set is completed with its original Esterbrook case, which shows light signs of storage, appropriate to handling, but in good overall condition and perfectly functional.

Preservation recommendations

It is recommended to use high-quality inks specifically designed for fountain pens, avoid pigmented inks, periodically clean with lukewarm water if not used for a while, dry completely before storing, keep in a dry place away from direct sun and extreme temperatures, and operate the filling system gently.

A very attractive piece for both daily use and collection.

Happy bidding!
