Color "Chiselled Chocolate" pattern -- Metallic lines and diamonds pattern with a light brown coloring. The photographed color is accurate but looks dark because the reflective properties don't photograph well. It's feels bright in hand. The trim is gold plated.
Nib Medium 18k nib. The feed is labeled F for fine, but we think it looks more like a medium. There's some residue on the nib that looks like masking wear. The nib is very smooth and springy.
Condition Superior condition. The barrel and cap look perfect with a completely even finish and pattern. All the wear is on the nib.
