Product Description
Type Unique modern luxury fountain pen
Product Name Hysek Pen.
Manufacturer and Year Hysek, made in France -- 1999-2006. This is a current design, but not a current model - none of the Hysek pens currently available are fountain pens. The band near the end of the barrel says Jorg Hysek which the company stopped being called in 2006.
Length 5-5/8"
Filling System Cartridge or converter, international configuration. Converter installed in the pen. (You unscrew the end of the pen opposite the nib, and the section is pushed out and released.)
Color Carbon fiber covered barrel with palladium plated trim and section. It looks almost like a double sided pen or like a very short desk pen. The pen sleeve is part of the design and has the pen clip on it.
Nib 18k medium nib. It is labeled M for medium near the barrel threads after unscrewing the barrel. Very smooth.
Condition Excellent condition, in box. There is scratching and some plating wear on the blind cap (the longer of the two silver end pieces), where a previous user posted the cap (the shorter of the two end pieces). The interior cap threads are metal and easily scratch the blind cap. The carbon fiber portion of the barrel has light to moderate scratching. The cap has light scratching. The pen sleeve looks great. No cracks, chips, or dents. Working very well. The box looks great, no damage or marks on it.
