AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A0000001705

This refined Cross Classic Century gold-plated set is presented in a condition notably superior, maintaining the elegance and timeless appeal characteristic of the prestigious American house. Both the fountain pen and the ballpoint pen exhibit a uniform and deep shine, typical of well-preserved gold-plated pieces. The iconic longitudinal grooved pattern remains firm and sharp, with no material loss or eroded areas, offering an impeccable finish at first glance.

The clip of both pieces maintains its correct tension, with no slack or deformations, and the brand inscriptions are clear and perfectly defined. The upper ends in black resin are equally clean, without dents or critical marks. The rotating mechanism of the pen operates smoothly and precisely, while the fountain pen presents its section in excellent condition, ready to accept a Cross cartridge or converter according to the user's preference.

Despite being a vintage set, it shows only minimal signs of handling, consistent with light and careful use, without affecting its aesthetics or functionality. The original Cross case, included in the sale, completes the set and makes it an ideal choice for both collectors and those seeking an elegant and representative set for daily use or as a gift.

Good auction!
