Waterman - Serie 94 Lever Filler - Fountain pen

A0000005201 Looking for a writing ensemble that represents the true robustness and elegance of American cellulose from the 1930s? This extraordinary Waterman's Ideal fountain pen and mechanical pencil set is a standout example of the coveted Model 94, one of the series most respected by the great historians of global high stationery. Unlike the compact versions of the era, the Model 94 was designed with elongated, regal proportions, offering an ergonomic grip and an impressive desktop presence. This set is manufactured in genuine Mahogany finish, a swirled ebony celluloid that stands out for the richness of its dark tones and contrasting grain. The fountain pen is crowned with its original 14-karat solid gold nib with a heart-shaped breather, a legendary writing tool for its elasticity and a stroke delivery full of calligraphic personality. Highlights of this Piece Sharp Commercial Engravings: The impressions on the barrel and caps are preserved with extraordinary depth, fully legible and without the typical wear from abrasive polishing, preserving their patrimonial value. Official Catalog Marking: The base of the barrel clearly displays the numeric stamp 94, an indispensable element that international experts require to certify authenticity and standard size of the piece. Era-Original Personalization: The fountain pen cap bears the J. D. Pearce engraving of origin in the celluloid. Far from detracting value, the 1930s personalizations provide a unique historical provenance and genuine vintage charm to the lot. Classic Ball-End Hardware: Both the clip finished in a smooth sphere and the elongated filling lever retain a firm gold plating, characteristic of this American-made production model.
