Color Dove gray body with a sterling silver cap, Blue Diamond clip, and a grey pearlescent cap jewel.
Nib MEDIUM 14k gold nib. (This will be finer that modern mediums.)
Condition Excellent condition with handwear and micro-scratches on the section. The cap is excellent with no dents, but there is a little discoloration on one side. (These sterling caps usually look quite discolored, but this one is much better than usual.) The imprint looks great, very crisp and clean throughout. Minor hand wear on the rest of the barrel leaves this pen still looking quite nice. Some color variation between the barrel and the blind cap, no very noticeable.
