Color The color is Plum, one of the most uncommon Parker 51 colors. Stainless steel cap with an arrow clip. Pearlescent cap jewel. We struggled to get the color accurately in our photos, but it is very dark and hard to photograph. We know Parker 51s very well, and we have no doubts about the color.
Nib EXTRA-FINE 14k nib with excellent tipping material. Firm and smooth.
Condition Excellent +, with no dents or scratches. No personalization. Overall extremely shiny. No cracks or chips or bite marks. The cap is also very nice, with no dents or scratches. There is some scratching on the clip, and light brassing on the edges and high points. There are some small scratches on the jewel.
