Montblanc - StarWalker Midnight Black - Fountain pen

A0000004375

The pen is presented in very good overall condition, showing a remarkable level of preservation both aesthetically and functionally. The body in black precious resin maintains a deep, uniform shine, with elegant reflections that enhance its sophisticated character. At a glance, there are no significant signs of wear or material loss, only extremely light micro-scratches typical of careful use, visible only upon close inspection.

The metal elements — clip, rings, and platinum-finish details — retain their integrity and original shine, with no signs of corrosion or significant wear. The clip maintains proper tension and alignment, ensuring practical and reliable use.

The translucent upper dome with the floating Montblanc emblem is in excellent condition, with no cracks or opacities, preserving its characteristic clean and defined visual effect.

The 14-karat gold nib, size B (Broad), is in very good condition. No bending or misalignment is observed, and the tip preserves its original geometry. The feed and flow have been checked, guaranteeing a smooth, generous, and steady writing experience, in line with this nib size.

The grip area shows excellent condition, with the characteristic textured pattern well defined, without noticeable wear, ensuring an optimal ergonomic experience.

As the only detail to mention, there is a small identifying tag with the letter “B” on the body, presumably added to identify the nib width. This element does not affect the piece’s functionality at all, though it constitutes a minor alteration outside the original configuration.

Overall, this is a very well-preserved specimen, completely functional and ready for use or collection, maintaining the modern and technical elegance inherent to the StarWalker Midnight Black line.

Conservation recommendations

It is recommended to use high-quality inks specific for fountain pens, avoiding pigmented inks. If not used for a long period, clean with lukewarm water, dry completely before storing, and keep the piece in a dry place away from direct light and extreme temperatures. Always operate the writing mechanism gently to preserve its internal mechanisms.

It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.

Happy bidding!
