Cleo Skribent Ebonite 11 Facets
Very unusual and cool details. Besides having eleven facets (how do they machine that?),
the cap end is flattened to an oval shape, and check out the clip. More pictures here: https://flic.kr/s/aHsktGUgk8
18k medium nib. Piston filler (or captive converter type of piston).
This is a full size pen - 146mm capped, 131mm uncapped, 166 posted (5.75" x 5.2" x 6.5")
I've never inked this, but I don't know if the factory or dealer might have tested it.
Cleo Skribent is a very old German company, out of sight for decades in E. Germany. Interestingly, the
same family retained management after nationalisation, then regained control after unification.
These are hard to find. I'm keeping and using my green version.
Sold, Thank you!
$311 including USA mail. Please contact me for the rest of the world.
I must sell most of my collection in the next few months. I hope you see something you love in my other items.
I'll pack these pens very carefully, and usually ship within 24 hours of payment.
