A0000004414

The pen is presented in very good overall condition, showing remarkable preservation both aesthetically and functionally.

The body in red marbleized resin maintains excellent gloss and depth of color, with the characteristic veins well defined and no noticeable discolorations. Light micro-scratches from superficial use are observed, typical of the passage of time and careful use, but without cracks, chips or structural defects. The black areas (butt cap and cap) likewise preserve a good finish, with minimal signs of handling.

The gold elements — clip, rings and embellishments — are in very good condition, with uniform shine and no significant losses of plating, which reinforces their visual appeal.

The 18K solid gold nib is in excellent condition, with no deformations or abnormal wear, maintaining proper alignment and smooth writing. The feed is clean and in optimal working condition.

The filling system has been inspected and tested, functioning correctly, guaranteeing a reliable writing experience from the first use.

Overall, it is a very well-preserved piece, fully functional and ready for use or collection, with mild signs of use coherent with its age.

Conservation recommendations

It is recommended to use inks of high quality specific for fountain pens and avoid pigmented inks. In case of long-term non-use, clean with lukewarm water, dry completely before storing and keep in a dry place, away from direct light and extreme temperatures. Always operate the filling mechanism gently to preserve its long-term mechanics.

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

Happy bidding!
