AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A0000004606

The Les Must de Cartier pen is in generally very good condition, standing out especially for its excellent aesthetic presence and attractive gold finish with guilloché pattern, which maintains a uniform and elegant shine.

On the surface, there are light signs of use, visible mainly as micro-scratches and small marks on the body and, more noticeably, around the nib area, where the wear is somewhat more pronounced due to regular use. These marks are consistent with careful use and do not affect at all the functionality or structural integrity of the piece.

The clip is well aligned and firm, preserving its proper tension, while the decorative rings and metal details maintain good definition. The engraving on the top (“Cartier Paris” and markings) is clear, reinforcing the authenticity and good condition of the set.

The writing mechanism has been inspected and is operational, ensuring proper functioning, in line with Collecting Legacy standards.

The original Les Must de Cartier case is included, showing signs of use and aging on the interior, such as small stains or wear to the fabric, although it continues to adequately fulfill its protective role and adds value to the ensemble.

Conservation recommendations:
To keep the piece in optimal condition, it is recommended to use high-quality compatible refills, avoid bumps or drops, gently clean the exterior with a dry cloth, and store the pen in a dry place, away from moisture, direct light, and extreme temperatures. Also, operate the mechanism gently to preserve its correct functioning in the long term.

Happy bidding!
