Designed as a celebration of the classic art of the early 20th century, this line combines an ergonomic torpedo-profile silhouette with the most advanced acrylic materials available today. This specimen stands out for its sturdy chassis 15.0 cm long when closed, made of high-density turned acrylic resin with an intricate mottled pattern that blends deep blues, translucent light blues, and veins in copper and cream tones. The cap features a friction-close system assisted by an internal spring that hermetically seals the block to prevent ink evaporation, mounting a clip polished and gold-plated with great flexibility and bearing the firm name "Esterbrook" cleanly engraved on the lower lip. The great jewel of this lot is its original steel nib with yellow gold plating, engraved with the historic Esterbrook clover and the date "Est. 1858," showing on the side the official medium nib size stamp "M." The feeding system operates via standard international cartridges or a piston converter.
