Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Circa 1970s Pilot Custom Sterling Silver Geometric pattern Fountain Pen fitted with an 18K Broad Nib. I would consider this fountain pen to be in Very Fine to Excellent condition. 

This fountain pen cap and barrel, display no dings or dents to the sterling silver. The geometric design on this pen is unique - the design is stamped into the sterling. The cap type is a "friction fit" type that secures to the barrel every time. The clip is stamped with, "Pilot" and the cap banding, "STERLING SILVER". This Pilot fountain pen measures 5 3/8" inches capped and 5 3/4" posted.

This Pilot uses a push-button ink converter. The converter is working with my tests in water. This ink converter is very specific to the pen as I have tried other pilot converters and none of them fit. 

The nib is marked "CUSTOM PILOT JAPAN 18K/750". The nib has a Broad point measuring .99mm when using digital calipers. The nib writes within a range of .41mm (extra-fine) on the horizontal strokes to 1.12mm (broad) to 1.56mm (double broad) on the downward strokes under medium to firm pressure when measured with digital calipers. The nib was only dip-tested with Parker Blue-black Quink Ink. 

This Pilot Sterling Geometric pattern fountain pen is a unique example as I have not been able to find another example like it. The previous owner traveled all over the world and was a well-known attorney so it is possible this design was only sold in Japan - I speculate this is why there is no information online regarding this pattern that I could find.
