Sheaffer Senior Flat Top Fountain Pen, Black & Pearl, Broad Stub, Exceptional

Sheaffer Lifetime White Dot fountain pen in black and pearl Radite. Flat top design, lever filler.

The nib is a Sheaffer Lifetime 14k broad stub, very hard to find. This pen sat untouched for years, long enough for the 14k gold to develop a beautiful surface toning toward the nib base. This rainbow patina could be wiped away with a jeweler's cloth if desired, but many collectors will want to leave it in place, as a kind of condition provenance. The nib is an excellent broad stub. The iridium has nice rounded edges, and it writes smoothly without catching.

I would not call it flexible, but the nib has a responsiveness, becoming more generous when you lean into the curves. This pen is in excellent condition, with no chips, no hairlines, no bites, no damage.

Also, there is no brassing of the gold filled trim, not even on the ball of the clip. This beauty carries only very light signs of careful use. The lever filler works well and has a new ink sac, ready to write. I've written several pages with this pen, and it performed perfectly, delivering ink smoothly and predictably, with no hiccups or surprises. Black and Pearl Sheaffers in this combination of color, condition, and nib are rarely offered.
