Color Brown pen. The base is light brown stone with flecks of white and cream, possibly Mexican onyx. The trumpet has a 3/16" gold band just below the opening.
Nib FINE two-toned 14k Feather Touch nib. Excellent condition, very smooth and springy.
Condition Excellent condition. The pen has a few scratches, but the tail screws on securely and the pen locks smoothly into the trumpet. Some brassing on thebarrel threads. The Touchdown system works smoothly and well. The middle portion of the imprint on the nib isnt clear (possibly polished down?), but you can still make out the outer edges. Barrel imprint is clear and easily readable. The base is in great condition, but has a few irregularities along the edges, some of which are simply due to the character of natural stone.
