A very rare, vintage 1950’s Platinum Pure Silver (.999Ag), Hand-Engraved Lever Filler Fountain pen. This Art-Deco inspired fountain pen has been fitted with a new ink sac and has been brought back to its former glory. This pen was first produced in the 1930’s, but due to some additional factory engravings on the cap band and clip, this is believed to be a 1950’s model.
Pen is in A-excellent condition. Fitted with new inc sac using shellac and tested for proper filling. Minor scratches and scuffs can be seen on the grip section as well as the silver barrel and cap.
