Color Arco Bronze celluloid. It's like a woodgrain pattern where the lighter browns seem to glow. The pen looks very different when held in different lighting at different angles. The trim is all "black ruthenium" (gunmetal/dark grey) finished, and includes Greek key patterned bands on the cap and section, as well as narrow trim rings on the cap lip and near the end of the barrel, and a clip with a roller ball end. The cap and barrel are faceted, and the panels alternate between plain and guilloche patterned.
Nib MEDIUM 14k nib, with the black ruthenium finish.
Condition Near mint condition. There are minimal marks or even microscratching, and the trim looks almost perfect. There is ink staining on the feed and around the nib, though we've cleaned it carefully. Ships in ASC box with warranty card; the box looks almost new.
