Color This is the Light or "薄" version of the Briar wood. It is a nice red and yellow brown. You can make out the wood grain and some of the imperfections in the wood. This is not the glossy version so it isn't covered with lacquer to smooth it out and make it extra shiny. Instead it looks more like a satin finish after extensive polishing. It has gold plated trim.
Nib Broad 18k Nakaya nib. An 18k Japanese broad should write much like the broads in the rest of the world.
Condition Near mint condition in box. The briar wood looks really great with an even finish. Slight polishing marks on the gold trim, but otherwise in practically perfect shape.
