AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Pelikan 400NN in green stripe is a classic vintage piston-filling fountain pen from 1956 to 1965, and one of the most recognizable designs in Pelikan’s historic 400 family. It features the characteristic green-and-black striped barrel, black resin cap and turning knob, and gold-plated trim, together with a traditional 14K gold nib. Compared with the earlier 400 and 400N, the 400NN has a more elongated, streamlined profile and a more pronounced tapered shape at both ends. Its reliable piston mechanism, generous ink capacity and well-balanced proportions make it an excellent writer, while the distinctive striped finish and elegant post-war design give the 400NN strong appeal among collectors of vintage Pelikan pens.
This example is fitted with a 14K Oblique Broad (OB) gold nib, a less commonly encountered configuration than the usual F or M widths. It is in very good, pre-owned condition and has been carefully cleaned. Imperfection: light scratches, one hairline crack on the piston knob, which is structurally repaired but still visible.
