AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful Pelikan 400 Fountain Pen with Tortoiseshell barrel and brown cap and turning knob.
Optical in very good condition, some scratches in the front part of the Fountain Pen (see pic. 10). Some loss of gilding on the edge of the capband (see pic. 16).
The filling system is in very good operational condition and it fills completely. (I tested it with water)
Imprint in the gilded capband: 'Pelikan 400 Pelikan 400 Pelikan 400'.
Imprint in the barrel-end beneath the turning knob: 'Günther Wagner Germany Pelikan 400'. No personal engravings in neither barrel nor cap.
Imprint in the solid gold nib: 'PELIKAN 585 14 KARAT DEF'. (The 'D' stands for 'Durchschreibfeder', which means that it is an extra rigid nib, because of the second venthole) It is a very smooth writer because of the solid iridum tip.
The Fountain Pen has been cleaned ultrasonically and the barrel is clear inside. It comes in a red artificial leather pen case for protection.
Please take a good look at the pictures, as they are part of the description.
I will ship Track&Trace.
