AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Montblanc 254 – Vintage fountain pen (1950s) – Nib or 14C – Piston – Rare model from series 2xx

DESCRIPTION
I am offering for sale a Montblanc 254, one of the most sought-after models from the prestigious series 2xx produced by Montblanc in the mid-1950s. These pens represent the pinnacle of post-war German manufacturing: perfect balance, noble materials, and nibs renowned for their unmatched smoothness.

The 254 holds a special place in the Montblanc collection.
It is the larger and more high-end version of the 252, now significantly rarer on the market.

Features

Brand: Montblanc
Model: 254
Period: 1950s
Manufacturing: Germany
System: Piston filling (tested, functioning correctly)
Plume: 14-carat gold (14C – 585), very pleasant to write with.
Body: glossy black resin
Ink window: bluish, translucent, typical of the 2xx series.
Capuchon: mounted rings, gold-plated clip, engraved ring “254”.

State

Beautiful vintage condition, consistent with an instrument over 60 years old.
Resin in good condition, beautiful shine.
Original 14C plume, unmodified, fluid writing style.
No cracks, no shocks.
The piston is functioning properly.
Ready-to-use pen or to be integrated into a serious collection.

Collector Interest

The Montblanc 254 is considered one of the most harmonious pens from Montblanc in the 1950s.
Its more generous format, its very high-quality pen, and its relative rarity make it a highly sought-after model.
The pens in this series have become difficult to find in good condition, which enhances their value and appeal among international collectors.

Dimensions
Closed length: about 13.5 cm.
Weight: light and perfectly balanced in hand.

Shipping
Secure shipment, carefully packaged.
International shipping with tracking and insurance.
