Product Name Unknown
Manufacturer and Year Marked Norwood on the clip, but we've been unable to find any info about this maker.
Length The pen is 4-13/16", the pencil is just barely under 4-11/16".
Filling System The pen is a lever filler, we've restored it with a new sac. The pencil takes 1.1mm (or "thick") leads which it extends via the traditional twist mechanism. We'll include a small packet of leads.
Color Cream with red veins. The cream color has mellowed to a yellow-green color in places. The red veins are almost burgundy. Gold plated trim. Single cap bands.
Nib MEDIUM FLEXIBLE #2 gold nib. Excellent soft feeling nib with a lot of flex, but there is a short crack off the right of the breather hole. We're not naive, this nib is going to be tempting to over flex, so you should know that this crack will worsen if you push it beyond the flex you see in our writing sample below.
Condition Very nice condition. This is a prettily colored pen and pencil set that is shiny and dainty. The fountain pen has light wear on the cap and barrel. The tip of the cap has some hairline cracks. The lever has some small scratches and a little bit of plating wear. The cap band and clip also have some plating wear. The imprint on the clip is clear. The mechanical pencil has very light scratching. The tip of the cap portion has hairline cracks. The cone, cap band, and clip have plating wear. The cone has brassing. The imprint on the clip is clear.
