Description from the seller

A0000006774

Article: SHEAFFER FLAT TOP RING TOP FOUNTAIN PEN, pocket, in jade green variegated celluloid, with wide band and upper ring, 14 K gold nib and side lever filler.
Reference / Edition: Sheaffer Flat Top Ring Top, jade green "Radite" celluloid.
Length: 11.6 cm.
Diameter: 1.1 cm.
Nib: F (Fine), 14 K gold, with engraving "SHEAFFER'S", "14K" and "MADE IN U.S.A.".
Period: 1920s.
Materials: Body and cap in jade green variegated celluloid with yellow, amber and brown veins; cap band, upper ring and lever filler in gold; 14 K gold nib. Side lever filler with internal reservoir.
Condition: Good general condition for its age. The celluloid retains its shine and the cap keeps the intense green, darkened toward the band by the passage of time; some small pores or pits are visible on the cap and body, especially near the lever. The section appears darkened, the lever shows fine scratches and the band and ring show light wear. The nib is intact, with legible engraving. Vintage piece not serviced in a workshop: a proper servicing of the filling mechanism before using it with ink is recommended.
Accessories: Only the loose piece; no box, case or papers visible in the photos.
