Condition Excellent + condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a mid-size, hefty pen with a beautiful color pattern that includes shimmery colorful swirls and lots of shine. The cap and barrel have light scratching. The posting threads have a bit of roughness on a few of them. The sterling clip has a little chip on the roller and there is tarnishing around it on either side and above it. In our photo, you'll see a glob of schmutz at the top of the clip, but we were able to remove 95% of what you see and only a small bit remains. The imprint is clear.
