Condition
The fountain pen is in excellent condition.
Servicing
The pen has been taken apart, cleaned, polished and fitted with a new old stock aerometric ink converter
Imperfections
There are no major imperfections to note, no chips cracks or engravings
The gold plating shows that it has been polished over time, but it retains its gold splendour, and is very clean and unblemished
Writing Style
The 14k Gold Nib has been tuned and writes beautifully, a finer medium, with a hint of flex, rather its slightly 'springy' rather than being a flex or semi flex nib,
