Product Description
Type Fountain Pen
Product Name Lamy Persona -- high end, towards the top of Lamy's line
Manufacturer and Year Lamy, Germany -- 1990s, this is the earlier 18k nib version and the pen was discontinued in 2004.
Length 5-3/4"
Filling System Takes Lamy cartridges and Z23 threaded converters (no longer produced). A Z23 converter is installed - the converter is from the early 1990s, because it has a West Germany imprint on it.
Color Black Titanium Oxide is what Lamy called this - it's a matte black coating over metal. Gold plated clip. Very modern and streamlined in style, designed by industrial designer Mario Bellini. The clip has a push mechanism to make it easier to use. The cap is smooth and the barrel is ribbed.
Nib Medium 18k nib. Not marked as to nib size, but we judge it to be a medium. The nib wraps around the section. It is smooth and springy.
Condition Excellent + condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a weighted, sleekly industrial looking pen in a modern design. There are some light scratches on the gold endpiece of the barrel, and also the clip. The black coating on the cap and barrel of the pen looks fantastic. The imprint on the end of the clip is clear.
