Pelikan 140 Black-Green Fountain Pen, 14K OB-nib - Preowned

This Pelikan 140 is a true vintage classic, representing an iconic era of German pen manufacturing. Produced between 1954 and 1964, this fountain pen embodies the timeless design and robust engineering that made Pelikan a legendary name in the world of writing instruments.

The pen features the instantly recognizable black-green striped cellulose acetate barrel, a hallmark of Pelikan's design from that period. Its compact, elegant size and gold-plated trim give it a sophisticated, retro aesthetic. As a pre-owned piece, this pen carries the subtle charm of its history, showing that it has been a well-cared-for companion for decades.

At the heart of this classic pen is a magnificent 14-carat gold OB (Oblique Broad) nib. This specialty nib is celebrated for its ability to produce an expressive, calligraphic line variation, with broad downstrokes and thinner cross-strokes. The oblique cut is ideal for writers who hold their pen at a slight angle, offering a wonderfully smooth and personalized writing experience that is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.

Attention: This pen is preowned and has some signs of use and storage due to its age. This specific one has a small crack in the cap which does not affect its functionality. Overall the pen is in good condition and ready to write.
