Product Description
Type Fountain Pen
Product Name La Plume Ultime
Manufacturer and Year S.T. Dupont, France -- 1980s
Length 5-1/2"
Filling System Takes older S.T. Dupont cartridges and converters or Parker style cartridges and converters. A converter is installed.
To access the converter, you need to unscrew the short section, which can be a little tricky because it's hard to get a grip on and possibly messy if the pen is inked. In order to start the section unscrewing, you put the cap on but don't push it on all the way so that it snaps, then turn it and the section will start to unscrew, and you can finish unscrewing it with your fingers.
Color Dark Blue Chinese lacquer with gold-colored trim. The serial number 58ERY54 is on the clip.
Nib Fine 18k nib. It's marked "OF" on the section, but we don't see an oblique cut on the nib.
Condition Excellent + condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a sleek and stylish pen in a nice dark blue color that is shiny and smooth. The cap and barrel are in beautiful condition. The gold trim, clip, and cap top all have light microscratching. The imprints are clear.
