Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a small, vintage, ring-top fountain pen that looks nice. The color has faded to a dark chocolate that can be compared to the black section for comparison. The chasing looks good. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip and moderate scratching and microscratching. The cap has light microscratching. The lever looks nice but the sides have pitting. The ring top has some light plating wear and pitting at the connection with the cap. The imprints are clear.
