Color "Yellow Tiffany" with gold trim. The stained glass inspired pattern is called "Tiffany" and this is the yellow version. The pen is made out of casein according to our research, and the milky yellow color supports the idea that the pen is casein and not a resin. You need to be careful with casein and not let it soak in water, as the material can warp and disssolve if left too long in water.
Nib 18K MEDIUM ITALIC (factory). Very smooth and wet. Soft feeling. Lots of tipping material, no wear to note. (There was a little ink on the nib in our photo.) See writing sample below.
Condition Excellent + condition. No cracks or chips or scratches. Very light handwear on the barrel with slightly more handwear visible on the trim. Ships in Conway Stewart box, no paperwork.
