Description:This Waterman Hundred Year "Lady" Fountain Pen and Mechanical Pencil Set, produced between 1942 and 1944, offers a rare glimpse into the elegance and craftsmanship of mid-century writing instruments. Both pieces are in excellent condition, with minimal wear and no cracks or personalization. The fountain pen, featuring a fine nib with a subtle hint of flex, has been fully cleaned, fitted with a new ink sac, and tested. The mechanical pencil is fully functional, advancing and retracting its lead, though the twist mechanism is slightly firm, adding to its vintage charm. The deep burgundy finish, with its striking gradient effect, evokes an almost celestial glow, as though it came from another world. The gold-filled trim provides an added layer of sophistication, offering a gleaming contrast to the rich body of the pen and pencil. This Waterman set is ready to write and impress, offering both style and functionality for those who seek a truly exceptional writing experience.
