Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a very small ring-top pen with lovely leaf patterned filigree layered over black hard rubber. The black hard rubber on the barrel has lightened to a dark chocolate brown. You can see the original black on the section and the hard rubber under the cap. The black section has some microdots all over. The cap and barrel sterling overlay has moderate microscratching all over. There are some small nicks along the upper edge of the cap. The ring top looks good. The platform that the ring is attached to has some tarnishing. The lever looks great and the imprints on it are clear.
