The cellulose retains shine and the blue veining is clearly visible, with signs of use, micro-scratches and light superficial lines distributed along the cap and body, especially visible in close-up. The gold plating on the clip and lever shows wear and loss of plating in the contact areas, with some patina; the two cap rings are complete. The gold nib appears intact and well aligned, with patina and darkening in the feed area typical of use. Vintage piece not serviced in workshop: the seal of the lever-filler system is not guaranteed; a check of the inner sac before using with ink is recommended Accessories: Only the loose piece; no box or papers visible in the photos
