AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A0000003554

The piece presents in overall very good condition, standing out for its elegant finish in gold metal with a deep, uniform shine that reflects proper care over time. The body and cap maintain an excellent aesthetic presence, with micro-scratches on the surface visible only under close inspection and certain light incidences, typical of light and respectful use.

The clip preserves its structural rigidity and proper alignment, free of deformations, maintaining optimal functionality. The band's engravings are sharp and well defined, indicating careful conservation with no significant wear on the inscriptions.

The nib, in 14-karat gold (14K), is in very good condition, with no visible deformations in the tines. It shows light usage marks consistent with writing, not affecting performance. The feed appears clean and properly aligned, ensuring an adequate ink flow. The pen has been serviced and is delivered in correct working order, ready for use.

The filling system operates smoothly, showing precise actuation and no play, which reinforces the good mechanical condition of the assembly.

A light patina and minimal pinpoint marks are evident on the gold finish, especially in areas of habitual contact, which do not detract from its overall aesthetics; rather, they add character to the piece.

As there is no original box, it will be shipped in a courtesy box for proper conservation. Happy bidding!

Care recommendations

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