Color The color is Black. 1/10 12k gold filled cap with an arrow clip in a pattern of converging lines. Pearlescent cap jewel.
Nib FINE gold nib is in excellent condition with good tipping material.
Condition Excellent + condition. Lovely cap with no dents and only minor wear. The clip has brassing on the high points where you'd expect it, and the top of the tassie ring is brassed, but the main part of the cap looks fantastic. The area underneath the nib is very smooth, no scratches like we often see. The barrel looks great, only light handwear and microscratching. No deep scratches, or cracks, chips, or personalization. Note that the feed is only slightly rotated and makes good contact with the nib; the angle of our "under the nib" shot makes it look more severely rotated.
