Filling System |
Fountain pen takes Parker cartridges, or can be used with the included vintage Parker squeeze converter. The ballpoint takes Parker-style ballpoint refills, and one is included. The pencil uses 0.9mm leads, which it extends via the traditional, twist-method. We'll include a packet of leads. |
Color | "Flighter" brushed steel bodies and caps with gold-plated trim. |
Nib | 14k gold nib is a medium. |
Condition | All three pieces look excellent. All have some very minor scuffs and light microscratching on their metal barrels and caps, but nothing that stands out, while the fountain pen has some minor scratching on its black plastic section as well. The fountain pen and the pencil both have a little plating wear on the trim (on the tassie's edges, on the corners of the pen's clip, shown in the photos below), but the ballpoint is free of plating damage. With just this small amount of wear, the three pieces make a beautiful set, they all work perfectly, and look especially good together. |
