Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this very scarce circa 1998 Tibaldi Trasparente Limited Edition Blue Marble Celluloid Fountain Pen fitted with an 18K Medium Nib. This fountain pen comes with the original Bononia Literature and wooden box. I have dipped the fountain pen to provide a writing sample and the pen is what I consider to be in Excellent condition and functions perfectly.

The Tibaldi Trasparente displays a blue marbled transparent celluloid accented with a Gold plate clip and 3-ring Cap Band. The three gold-plated cap band rings and "tie-shaped" clip in hot minted gold, which has always distinguished all Tibaldi creations, are made from 3-micron thick 24-carat gold-plated brass. 

The Tibaldi Trasparente celluloid Fountain Pen had a production of just 1200 pens based on the literature, but around 700 were actually manufactured based on sources that were close to the company. This particular fountain pen is numbered "324" on the lower portion of the barrel. The cap and barrel are in perfect condition with no cracks, chips, or repairs. The cap is always securing tightly to the barrel. The 3-ring cap bands are securely in place and the "tie-shaped" clip displays is polished to shine brightly. This fountain pen measures 5 1/2" capped and 6 1/2" posted. 

The Tibaldi Trasparente 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 (.69mm) to a broad (1.05mm) line variation when measuring with digital calipers.

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

The fountain pen comes with the documentation and box. 

The Tibaldi Trasparente Fountain Pens from the 1990s were inspired by vintage designs from the 1930s. This pen was designed as a modern filling instrument, aiming to provide an exceptional writing experience. Its shape embodies balance and simplicity, representing the pinnacle of elegance.

I would consider Tibaldi Trasparente Limited Edition Fountain Pen to grade in Excellent Condition. This Tibaldi Trasparente Fountain Pen 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. 

*The Previous Owner purchased this fountain pen in Rome back in March 1998 at Novelli.
