Montblanc 204 Desk Set

Rare Deskset from the 1950s

 

Filler Type Piston-filler
Date of Manufacturer 1950s
Overall Condition Excellent condition
Nib Correct and perfect 14K flugelfeder ("wing nib" - see picture below) nib in Fine (F) size. The wing nib design was an effort to modernize the nib design during the mid-1950s. The result is an extremely nice nib with enough flex to provide very nice shading in everyday writing. The nib is in excellent condition, with crisp imprints and the early smooth feed.
Body and Base The pen and base show minimal surface wear, and the ink window is perfectly clear. There are no cracks, chip, owner imprints or damage to the set.
Additional details While Montblanc wing-nibbed pens from this period are not uncommon, a desk set is somewhat rare. This would make a stunning addition to any Montblanc collector's desk, and the pen should be a fantastic writer with its flexible nib.

Pen has been filled with water to test the condition of its seal. It appears to draw and hold water without difficulty.
