Condition Near mint condition, in black wooden box, with paperwork and with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a beautiful, shiny red-orange pen that has classical styling. The barrel has a bit of light signs of usage that is difficult to see because of the color of the pen. The cone and twist gold twist top look great with just a small microscratch here or there. The clip is perfect. The imprints are clear.
