The Story
In the 1980s, following their purchase by Dunhill, Montblanc began producing pens and pencils for Dunhill. These were mechanically Montblanc but styled by Dunhill with the distinctive black lacquer inlay on the clip. This fountain pen is based on the Montblanc Noblesse and has the Noblesse grip section and nib. But it is a distinctive design for Dunhill, which they call “Gemline”.
The pen has a delightfully smooth 14k fine nib with an ornate scroll design which make these such lovely nibs, both on the eye and on the page.
The pen comes in its original dark brown Dunhill case, complete with guarantee card, instructions, polishing cloth and Dunhill converter. The pen has been fully serviced and is ready to write
The Nitty-Gritty
There are no major imperfections to note, no chips splits or engravings.
There are one or two signs of tarnishing to the silver plating, on the cap and barrel but the pen polishes up beautifully and is in superb condition.
The case has one or two scuffs and dents in places, but is presentable nonetheless.
Writing
The nib is a lovely fine14k gold nib. It is very smooth and responsive, a joy to write with.
