Description from the seller

A0000004212

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

The body in black resin maintains excellent shine and uniformity, with slight micro-signs of use typical of a previously used piece, barely perceptible to the naked eye and in no way affecting its visual presence. No cracks, dents, or deformations are evident.

The platinum-plated metal cap, characteristic of the Doué version, is in very good condition, preserving its original satin finish with minimal superficial marks derived from normal use. The clip shows good tension and correct alignment.

The metal finishes (rings and terminals) maintain a good overall state, with mild signs of handling but without significant material loss or relevant deterioration.

The floating Montblanc emblem at the top remains clean and well defined, with no cracks or damage, maintaining its characteristic visual effect.

The 14-karat gold nib is in very good condition, with no visible deformations, proper alignment, and ready to offer smooth writing. The pen has been inspected and tested, guaranteeing proper functioning.

Overall, it is a very well-preserved piece, with light signs of use consistent with its nature, which do not affect either its aesthetics or its performance.

Conservation recommendations

To keep the pen in optimal condition, it is recommended to use high-quality inks specifically for fountain pens, avoid pigmented inks, perform periodic cleanings with lukewarm water if not in use for a while, dry it completely before storing and keep it in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. It is advisable to operate the filling system gently.

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

Good luck with the auction!
