Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this 1996 E.E. Ercolessi Limited Editon 321/1921 Green Marbled Celluloid Fountain Pen (manufactured by Omas) fitted with an 18K Medium Nib. This fountain pen comes with the original Ercolessi wooden inner box and green outer box, the E.E. Ercolessi Literature, the unused Ink Bottle, and the Green Pen Sleeve. I have dipped the fountain pen to provide a writing sample and the pen is in Mint condition and functions perfectly.

NOTE: The E.E. Ercolessi pen shop stands as one of Milan's oldest and most renowned pen stores. Established in 1921, it has been a significant hub for pen enthusiasts and collectors for nearly a century. During the 1920s and in subsequent decades, they commissioned various pen makers, including Omas, to produce their own E.E. Ercolessi pens. Several of these pens were crafted by Omas based on Minerva models, featuring only slight modifications to the original design. This is the 75th Anniversary Limited Edition to only 1921 worldwide that Ercolessi commissioned Omas to produce. 

This stunning piece is crafted from green marbled celluloid. It features four gold-plated rings—two on the cap and two on the barrel. The gold plating is polished to a brilliant shine, showing no signs of wear. 

The E.E. Ercolessi green marbled celluloid Fountain Pen had a production of just 1921 pens. This particular fountain pen is numbered "321" on the lower portion of the barrel. The cap and barrel are in perfect condition with no cracks, nicks, scratches, or repairs. The cap is always securing tightly to the barrel. The gold ring bands are securely in place and the clip displays no wear. This fountain pen measures 5 3/8" inches in length capped, 6 3/4" inches posted, and weighs 2.29 ounces. 

The Ercolessi Fountain Pen comes fitted with an 18K/750 medium nib. I dipped the nib in Montblanc Blue ink to perform a writing sample that you see in the images. The nib is designated a medium and stamped, "M" on the shoulder of the right tine area. The iridium tipping measures .82mm when measured with a digital caliper. The writing sample provided was done with the actual pen in the images that are listed for sale. The nib will range from a medium (.62mm) to a broad (1.16mm) line variation when measuring with digital calipers.

This fountain pen uses a piston filling system and I have tested it with water and works as it was designed to. 

The fountain pen comes with everything you see in the photos; inner and outer boxes, ink, literature, and a green pen sleeve. 

The E.E. Ercolessi Limited Edition Fountain Pen is a very desirable and scarce Italian-made pen. I would condition this fountain pen to grade in Near Mint to Mint Condition. This E.E. Ercolessi would be one of the highlighted fountain pens in one's writing arsenal collection and a rare example that most never will have a chance to own.
