Five Vintage Fountain Pens with 14ct Gold Nibs, Including Parker and Mentmore

This lot comprises five vintage fountain pens offered together. Nibs are described as 14ct gold, and two are engraved with the Parker and Mentmore names. The Parker nib is stamped 14K and sits on a blue barrel. Other pens in the group include a black-bodied example with a gold-tone nib, two marbled red and black barrels with gold-tone trim, and a plain dark barrel with banding and a gold-tone nib. Also included are a gold-tone fluted barrel and a chrome-tone clip, with several loose caps. The mix of barrel materials and finishes gives the lot a varied range of mid-twentieth-century styles.

Sold As Found, With Visible Signs of Age and Use

Condition varies across the five pens, and the lot is offered as found. The nibs show tarnish and discolouration, particularly on the Mentmore examples, and the dark barrel shows marks and scuffing. The gold-tone fluted barrel and the marbled barrels show general handling wear. Functionality has not been tested, and buyers should make their own assessment. Originality appears intact for the named nibs. The combination of Parker and Mentmore nibs, multiple barrel finishes and a range of gold-nib pens will appeal to collectors of vintage writing instruments, and to restorers looking for parts or projects.
