Condition New, near mint, in box, with paperwork, a piston converter and two ink cartridges. No cracks, chips, dents, dents, or scratches. This is a very beautiful, uniquely decorated pen. The imprints are clear. Some of the edges of the leather appear slightly misaligned, which could easily be attributed to the Japanese aesthetic of "wabi-sabi", or embracing imperfections. With care, the leather should remain in place. The box is likewise decorated with raised dots, reinforcing the tactile aspect of the pen.
