Filling System The fountain pen has a lever filling system. We replaced the sac and it's working well. The pencil has a clicker mechanism to extend and retract the leads. It takes 0.9mm or "thin" leads.
Color Burgundy, a dark purplish-red, barrel and section with 1/10 14k gold-filled cap. There are grooved lines around the caps.
Nib FLEXIBLE FINE 14k nib, smooth and fun with good line variation. Please see our writing sample in the photos.
Condition Excellent condition. The fountain pen cap looks good in the hand, though with magnification you can see small spots of brassing, as well as on the top edge of the gold-filled portion near the clip. The clip also has brassing on the side edges and around the open end. The barrel has light to moderate scratching, increasing near the pointy end. There is some brassing on the lever bar. The mechanical pencil looks good. The cap has light scratching and wear, but minimal brassing and no plating wear. The clip has touches of brassing along the sides. All imprints are clear and there is no personalization. Both pieces are working very well.
