Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a small, shiny pen in a beautiful color pattern. The "pearl" areas have discolored to a rich caramel on the barrel and in the mid-section of the cap. The black veins are vibrant throughout the pattern and the pearlescence is visible. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip as well as moderate scratching with the heavier scratching toward the end of the barrel, above the blind cap. The cap has moderate scratching. Each of the three cap bands has some plating wear with the most on the band closest to the barrel. The ring top looks nice with some small amount of plating wear along edges. The imprints are clear even though there is some scratching through them.
