Color The cap and trim are 23K electroplated gold. The cap has been decorated with enamel holly berries and leaves. The barrel is berry red. The cap is engraved with "1996."
Nib The nib is a long diamond style inlaid nib, 23K Medium Nib. The section clearly says, "M," even though it shows some wear.
Condition Mint condition, in original box. As far as we can tell, the pen was never inked. The barrel does have some storage wear and light scratching. (There is a plastic band that holds the pen in the box, and one edge has some uneveness that looks like it could easily scratch the barrel of the pen when removing and replacing it.) The cap and trim looks practically perfect, very shiny and free from scratches and wear. The White Dot does have some small scratches on the surface. Ships in the original Holiday Originals "The Holly Pen" box. The box looks like an older book ready to be placed on the shelf. There are scratches on the box that add to the feeling of book wear.
