Manufacturer and Year Orlow. We have not been able to find anything about this manufacturer, but we're pretty sure it was made somewhere in Europe in the 1930s or 1940s.
Length 4-7/8"
Filling System Button filler. Restored here at PSP with a new sac.
Color Grey snakeskin with black end pieces. Gold plated clip and three cap bands with floral patterned center band (very pretty). The barrel has a personalization: "Josef Reichl".
Nib MEDIUM FLEXIBLE Warranted 14k gold nib. Please see writing sample in photos below.
Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a short, stocky pen in a unique color pattern with delicately ornate cap band and clip. The cap and barrel have some light scratching. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip. It is very difficult to see the light scratching on this pen because of the patterning. The cap bands have microscratching but no plating wear. The clip has brassing and some plating wear at the top and the clip band also has plating wear. Both have microscratching. The black end pieces look great. The pen is personalized on the barrel, "Josef Reichl". The Orlow imprint on the barrel is clear.
