Product Description
Type Fountain Pen
Product Name Conway Stewart 550 "Dinkie" Pen Set
Manufacturer and Year Conway Stewart, England -- 1952-62.
Length The pen is 4-1/8" and the pencil is 4-3/8".
Filling System The pen is a restored lever filler and the pencil takes "thick" leads. The pen has been restored, however the pencil does not work.
Color Both are marble red celluloid or casein with black veins and gold filled trim.
Nib 14k flexible fine Conway Stewart nib. It's very small with good tipping material. The tines spread easily and offer somewhere between a semiflexible and a flexible writing experience. See the writing sample below.
Condition Excellent condition in original box. The imprints are incredibly clear on both pieces. There's some plating wear on the clips and tassies as well as a mark on the cap beneath the tassie on the pen. The overall condition of the miniaturized set is fantastic. (As mentioned above, the pencil does not work.)
