Condition The fountain pen is in vrery nice condition, very smooth and shiny and free or cracks and chips. The cap is also very nice with no dents or dings, just a few very tiny pin sized impressions near the jewel. There's a small amount of plating wear-thru on the ridges of the tassies and the clip, and on the edge of the cap band. The blue diamond looks great, with good paint. There are a few marks on the top tassie. There's a slight offset where the blind cap meets the barrel, which you can see in the finial shot below.
