Color Dove Grey body with flighter (brushed steel) cap, gold plated trim, an arrow clip, and a conical cap tassie. The gray looks much more clearly gray than black in hand.
Nib MEDIUM-BROAD gold plated nib is made in England. It is gold plated and matches the gold plated trim. The section is labeled M, but it actually looks more like a broad to us. It is smooth and firm with nice tipping material.
Condition Very nice condition. Though it does not seem to have been inked or dipped before, it has some scratches on the cap which might have been acquired over the years of storage. They have been photographed.
