I love this pen! A gorgeous and very well done Chateau Lafite Rothschild fountain pen with solid sterling silver furniture. I really enjoy the way the silver has toned over time and especially the section and cap end logo that has toned with a rainbow effect. However, if you want to remove the toning just a bit of silver polish will do the trick. The nib is 18K gold and medium in size. Also, this pen has a wonderful seasoned scent when you open the box. I am not sure if it is the mixture of oak, wine, and age, but it has a lovely light fragrance. I think if I were to have ever used it I would definitely be sniffing the pen as much as writing with it.

Price is reduced from $1200.00 to $1100.00 / OBO plus $26.00 worldwide shipping and insurance. Tracking number will be provided. Payment via PayPal. I will consider all reasonable offers!

This is a limited edition and is numbered 363/100. It is in mint condition in the original box with all papers (some shelf wear to the box seen in the photos.) In researching the pen I found that Omas, in fitting with their typical design engineering, actually treated the oak with an impervious clear penetrate that will not allow ink to stain the wood.
Size of the box: 25 / 19 / 9cm; 9.8 / 7.4 / 3.5 inches.

I do my very best to be meticulous, verbose, and accurate when describing the pens I put up for sale. Please do review all photographs carefully as they are an important part of the description and supply information that descriptions cannot. Feel free to PM me with any questions and I will get back to you as soon as humanly possible.

I buy Rothschild wine fairly regularly, but the pen is way out of my price range. Great collectors piece. Good luck with the sale.

As a bit of advice to anyone with more self restraint than me, Rothschild wine is supposed to be a good investment at the moment.
I keep buying bottles but when I wake up in the morning they always seem to be empty.
