Perfect gift! Dear future buyer, This lot consists of two vintage luxury ballpoint pens in rare finishes, Art Deco - Ligne: 925 sterling silver Italian artisanal ballpoint pen and Parker Ligne, both made in 1970s and 1980s France/Italy. The Italian made pen was carved in a 925 silver barrel and exhibits a very sturdy machined interior locking mechanism. The Parker exhibits the classic "clicker" action with soft gliding over the French carved patterns. The Italian pen can take modern cross cartridges that can be easily adapted to fit, and the Parker can take normal G2 refills. Feel free to look online, as these French and Italian (especially sterling) pens are favored by writers and luxury and design enthusiasts all over the world. As a vintage objects collector myself, I made sure you will get a fully functional and complete piece of art, using my extensive knowledge and handling them with care, as I would do for myself. I will never give away something I wouldn't want myself, even more so since everything here is part of my own collection. The pens are technically and esthetically perfect, passing all tests! Please Note: - The back panel is meant to hold the pen safe for the photo shoot. - The shipping will be done with the best protective packaging, insurance and a tracking code, as I would do for myself Thank you. Happy holidays and happy treasure hunting!
