Montblanc - Masterpiece 744-N - Fountain pen

A0000003554

The piece is presented in very good overall condition, standing out for its elegant finish in golden metal with a deep and uniform shine, reflecting proper care over time. The body and cap maintain an excellent aesthetic presence, with micro-signs of superficial use visible only upon close inspection and certain light incidences, typical of light and respectful use.

The clip retains its structural firmness and correct alignment, without deformations, maintaining its optimal functionality. The engravings on the ring are sharp and well defined, indicating careful preservation without significant wear on the inscriptions.

The nib, in 14 carat gold (14K), is in very good condition, with no visible deformities in the tines. It shows light signs of use consistent with writing, not affecting performance. The feed appears clean and correctly aligned, guaranteeing adequate ink flow. The pen has been checked and is delivered in proper working order, ready for use.

The filling system operates smoothly, showing precise actuation and no play, reinforcing the good mechanical condition of the whole.

A light patina and minimal pinpoint marks in the gold finish are noticeable, especially in areas of habitual contact, which do not detract at all from its overall aesthetics, but rather add character to the piece.

As there is no original box, it will be shipped in a courtesy box for proper conservation. Happy bidding!

Conservation recommendations

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