Description from the seller
Here we present a design masterpiece with a bold, audacious character and decidedly contemporary tone: the Montblanc StarWalker Midnight Black Metal Fountain Pen.
The design of this model markedly departs from the maison's classic resins, offering a unique tactile and visual experience. The body and cap are entirely metal and feature a sophisticated matte finish with horizontal guilloché lines carved into the surface. This textural quality is magnificently enhanced by the total-black ruthenium coating, giving the instrument a dark gray/gunmetal hue with unparalleled charm. The finishes, glossy and mirror-like, create an elegant tonal contrast with the matte body. To crown the aerodynamically sleek silhouette, we find the iconic transparent cap dome at the top of the cap, inside which floats the famous Montblanc white star emblem.
The heart of this fountain pen is its magnificent nib in solid 14-karat gold (Au585). To maintain absolute aesthetic coherence with the rest of the pen, the nib has also undergone a ruthenium bath, presenting a stunning dark appearance, finely etched with the Montblanc logo. As documented by the images showing the pen disassembled, the filling system is cartridge-based, accessible by unscrewing the solid ergonomic grip from the metal barrel. The cap, equipped with threading, can be securely screwed onto the end cap during writing for optimal balance.
The condition of the object is to be considered generally excellent. The metal structure is solid, free of dents or deformations. The ruthenium plating is well preserved both on the guilloché finishing and on the polished parts, showing only the very slight, physiological hairlines due to normal, attentive daily use. The solid gold nib is in perfect, ready-to-use condition. The upper transparent dome is crystal-clear, and the emblem is intact.
