AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Authentique Stylo-Plume Vintage - Parker Duofold Standard (Made in England) – Year of manufacture between 1950 and 1955. Probably the 5 . 4 engraving on the nib refers respectively to the year 1955 and the quarter Q4!. Superb vintage fountain pen from the famous Parker brand, made in England (Newhaven factory) in the mid-1950s. Standard size model in superb conservation condition.
Characteristics and details:
• Body & Cap: Precious dark blue/night blue resin, very elegant. Beautiful shine.
• Features: Short arrow clip and a wide gold-plated geometric “chevron” band.
• Nib: Solid 14-carat gold, engraved "PARKER 14K ENGLAND" with nib number 5.4. The nibs are perfectly aligned.
• Filling system: Original chromed metal "Aerometric" mechanism (engraved Parker). The sac is supple, perfectly airtight and works very well (tested).
• Dimensions: Length 12.5 cm (cap closed).
Overall condition:
The pen is in excellent aesthetic and mechanical condition for its age. No cracks, no major impacts. Very light micro-scratches from normal use for a vintage object over 70 years old.
The ink-filling mechanism pumps ink perfectly; the pen is immediately ready to write or to join a collection."
