Parker - Duofold Lapis Blue Marble - Fountain pen

A0000003523

The set is presented in very good overall condition, preserving all the personality and character of an authentic Parker piece from the 1920s–1930s.

The Lapis Blue Marble celluloid maintains its color depth and its attractive blue marble-like veining with natural shine. Signs of use and micro-scratches are slightly visible, consistent with the passage of time and normal use of a vintage piece. These signs do not affect the structure of the material or compromise its stability.

In the golden metal elements (clip, rings, cone of the fountain-pen grip and embellishments) there are marks and slightly more noticeable scratches, typical of rubbing and handling over decades. The gold finish retains good overall presence and uniformity, with no structural losses or deformations.

The body engraving remains visible. The 14K gold nib retains definition in its engravings and an integral structure, with no appreciable alterations in its morphology. The ink-filling system and the mechanism of the pencil-pen do not show structural damage.

Overall, this is an authentic and honest set, with the natural marks that accompany a nearly century-old historical piece, but without structural cracks, no functional damage, and without compromising its use or collectible value.

It presents a patina appropriate to its age that reinforces its vintage character without detracting from its appeal.

It will be shipped in a courtesy box to preserve the integrity of the set.

Happy bidding!
