AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A0000004353

The fountain pen is presented in excellent overall condition, showing a very high level of conservation both aesthetically and functionally. The resin body “Primary Manipulation” maintains a deep, uniform shine, with the characteristic multicolor patterns perfectly defined, without loss of intensity or noticeable discolorations. No cracks, deformations, or structural defects are observed.

Cosmetically, extremely light micro-scratches from handling typical of very careful use can be appreciated, only visible under close inspection and direct light, with no impact on the overall aesthetics of the piece.

The metal elements (clip, central decorative ring and end caps) are in very good condition, preserving their finish with minimal signs of use.

The piston-filling system has been inspected and tested, functioning smoothly and precisely, ensuring efficient filling. The side windows allow proper visibility of the ink level. The steel nib, accompanied by an ebonite feeder, is in perfect condition, aligned and ready to offer smooth and steady writing.

The original Nahvalur box and documentation are included, which notably increase its appeal and value within the collectors’ market.

Conservation recommendations

It is recommended to use high-quality inks specific to fountain pens, avoiding pigmented inks. In case of prolonged non-use, clean with lukewarm water, dry completely before storing and keep in a dry place, without direct exposure to sunlight or extreme temperatures. Always operate the filling system gently to preserve its proper functioning.
