AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This Parker Lucky Curve model, combined with True Blue (cap) and Amber Laminated (body), is presented in a condition of preservation that is highly outstanding within its category. It is a piece with an aesthetic particularly sought after by collectors of pre-Vacumatic Parker pens, thanks to the contrast between the pearlescent blue of the cap and the laminated amber of the body, which adds depth and character to the overall appearance.

The cap retains the characteristic True Blue celluloid, with clear ivory-toned veins that appear clean and well-defined. In the photographs, a surface with good shine is observed, free of cracks or visible deformations. The clip with engraved PARKER is well seated and aligned, with superficial wear consistent with the age of the piece, and the three gold rings appear complete and correctly integrated into the structure of the cap.

The body, made of Amber Laminated, features a warm veining and highly attractive transparency, with reflections that enhance the finish. Visually, no cracks or breaks are visible, and the overall presentation maintains a solid and elegant presence. The marking/inscription 'Parker Lucky Curve Pen Canada' on the nib is visible, adding an extra touch of authenticity and historical context.

The nib is in good condition, with fins aligned and no apparent deformations at the tip. The feeder, with a classic aesthetic, appears complete. Overall, the pen conveys a sense of a well-cared-for piece, with a natural and very attractive patina, typical of a well-preserved vintage instrument.

Loading system: button mechanism characteristic of this type of Parker.
It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.

Good auction!
