Description from the seller
In this listing we present a specimen of exquisitely modern and technological charm, belonging to one of the most iconic and bold collections of the Hamburg house: the Montblanc StarWalker Black Mystery fountain pen.
The design of this writing instrument breaks with classic schemes thanks to an innovative surface. The body is adorned with an intricate geometric pattern laser-engraved, which creates a play of lines and rectangles with a strong visual and tactile impact. This contemporary workmanship is enhanced by the contrast with platinum-plated finishes, mirror-polished, present on the distinctive clip with an aerodynamic profile and on the smooth grip section. To seal the identity of the StarWalker line, we find the famous transparent dome on the top, inside which the Montblanc white star emblem floats magically.
The heart of this fountain pen is its excellent writing assembly: by unscrewing the cap, a beautiful nib in solid 14-carat gold (Au585) is revealed. To maintain a perfect chromatic harmony with the pen’s finishes, the nib has undergone a rhodium bath that gives it an elegant silvery tone, and it is finely engraved with the Montblanc logo. The filling system is cartridge.
Regarding the condition, the item presents in good overall condition, but requires an important aesthetic clarification. The body, the grip, and the precious 14K gold nib are in excellent condition and perfectly ready for use. However, as documented with extreme transparency in the last three detailed photographs, the cap shows damage. There is a lesion/chipping in the black resin positioned laterally, right near the attachment of the clip. This defect is purely aesthetic and does not in any way compromise the cap’s screw closure or the pen’s perfect mechanical functionality for writing.
