Condition and information:

A very rare and stunning looking fountain pen by Reform made in Germany. The pen features a superb build quality, form factor and design. The body of the pen is crafted in highly processed plastic in chocolate brown color giving the pen a unique vintage look. Besides the great appeal and high shine, this high-grade material is scratch protective and offers physical protection of the pen. The cap is 24K gold plated with a very beautiful blue Reform logo on top. The cap is designed with beautiful guilloche lines giving it structure and even greater appeal.

The pen is fitted with a very special KEF (kugel extra fine), solid 14K 585 gold nib which features great flexibility. This is a ball-like nib tip that allows for easy and smooth writing on any paper and non-scratching nib at almost any writing angle and any odd strokes. While most fountain pens can be held only at a specific angle range, with this pen that angle range is greatly increased, meaning it can write at a very low or high angle in respect to the plain/paper. This feature is very useful for people who need to deploy the pen very fast without looking down at the paper and the way they hold the pen, i.e. journalists. Besides the KEF point, the nib is also very flexible and it will write bigger sizes with the slightest pressure while writing, such as F fine, M medium, B broad. Such nibs produce amazing writing with various line thickness, which is what fountain pens are best at.

The pen is very easy to use and fill, it can take any size standard international cartridge or a standard piston converter. It is also very easy to clean and maintain, completely easily disassemblable, including front section, feed and nib.
The pen is ergonomically built, posting the cap gives it a substantial weight and longer length making it an oversize pen at 153mm which is huge by any standards. The pen has a perfect length and thickness, with a good grip and feel in the hand. A perfect every day, trouble-free, high-quality pen made by the famous Reform Pen Company in Germany.

The pen is in absolute mint near NOS condition with no scratches, dents or any other functional or cosmetic marks.
