Very good overall cosmetic and mechanical condition. The red lacquer retains its intense color and original shine, with no chips or cracks. The ballpoint pen’s silver-plated finish remains bright, showing slight superficial micro-scratches consistent with use and age. Mechanically tested and 100% functional: the mechanical pencil’s lead-advance mechanism responds firmly, and the ballpoint pen twists smoothly. The lot is offered with both pieces loose (no case).
