Product Description

Product Name Finesse Bi-Color (possibly a prototype of the Parthenon line). We learned everything we know about Elysee pens from this brilliant document.
Manufacturer and Year Elysee, Germany -- 1991.
Length 5-5/8"
Filling System It takes standard international cartridges or it can be filled using a converter. A piston converter is included.

Color Gold plated and platinum plated panels, the latter in a barleycorn pattern. The wider silver stripe has a squiggley line pattern. Black section.
Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a heavy pen that shines and shimmers and that is very elegant in appearance. The gold stripes have various levels of microscratching. The broader silver stripes look great and the squiggley line decoration is all intact. The gold clip looks great. There is moderate scratching on the cap, especially in the gold area that would be for a personalization. The cap band also has some more moderate microscratching. The imprints are clear.
