1) SOLD Cross Townsend Jade LE 18k (M) nib - This limited edition Jade Cross Townsend(fountain pen) was one of two limited edition Townsend models produced by Cross during the 1990's, the other version being the Lapis Lazuli Townsend. Noted for their unique one of a kind finishes using genuine Jade and Lapis Lazuli - the semi-precious stones were ground into ultra-fine particles and applied to the brass frame of each pen. Solid 22k gold flake is suspended in the finish before being coated with several layers of clear lacquer. While this special finish results in some incredibly beautiful and unique pens, the extreme costs of producing these gemstone finishes was too high and production stopped. Over the years the Jade and Lapis Lazuli Townsends have become the most rare and sought after Cross writing instruments. Not just for display, the Cross 18k (M) nib is glassy smooth, and the advanced feed delivers superb ink flow. As a result. the Jade Townsend is an incredibly smooth and wet writer reminiscent of the top tier quality and performance once associated with Cross writing instruments.
