Color This pen has a beautiful 12-faceted black resin body with a vermeil (gold over sterling silver) cap. The cap band and section band have a Greek key pattern.
Condition Near mint condition. There is an indent on the lower cap band on one of the facets, which looks like a manufacturing remnant where the cap was gripped when they applied the hallmark. We've included a detailed host of this area in the photos. This is a gorgeous and elegant velvety black faceted pen with a brilliant cap that glints and shines. The barrel has some microscratching. The cap has light microscratching on the facets, visible under magnification. There is some tarnishing around the engravings and hallmarks. The imprints are clear. In Omas gift box, but the gift box is not in good condition as the white leather-like material has started to flake off.
This is the indent we refer to in the description:
