Description from the seller

Refined 800 Silver Desk Pen Holder, Italian Design (1970s/1980s)
I am pleased to present this elegant 800 silver desk pen holder, a distinguished item perfect for enhancing a desk, console table, or display cabinet. This set is a collectible piece and a symbol of professional refinement. Two arches complete the piece and are suitable for holding papers.

The pen holder is an example of fine Italian craftsmanship, with a restrained, elegant design stylistically dating from the 1970s to the 1980s. Its shape and materials were chosen to lend an immediate sense of prestige to its surroundings. The workmanship is good and very carefully executed, with finishes and fine chasing that attest to its artisanal quality.

The set includes the pen holder body and a matching pen, all presented in the original storage box. The metal's authenticity is guaranteed by the 800 silver hallmark stamped on the lower outer edge. There is also another silversmith's identification mark, featuring a sequence of numbers followed by the initials “FI” (Florence), suggesting a prestigious Tuscan origin.
Thanks to its harmonious dimensions, the pen holder fits discreetly and elegantly into any setting, from a modern office to a traditional study.

Total Weight (Pen Holder + Pen): Approximately 92.7 grams. Weight of the Pen Holder alone: 83.4 grams (including an internal plastic rim that ensures stability). The included pen is aesthetically intact, but will need its ink replaced.
The overall condition is good for an item of this age. There is a very slight, barely visible dent on the “neck” of the pen holder, as shown in the photographs, and a few tiny, insignificant marks around the opening, as pictured.

The item will be packed carefully and professionally to ensure maximum protection. It will be shipped via a well-known, reliable courier, with tracking and insurance, for completely secure delivery.
