A rare highest quality pen by Quill USA. Quill Pens was founded in Rhode Island in 1945. This pen was manufactured at the peak of the company’s operations, early to mid 1980s. The company still operates today, but most of the pens are now only assembled in USA, not made in USA such as this pen. The pen is a true generational pen, simple in design and form factor, but made out of the highest quality materials, meant to last for decades. Solid steel base overlaid with thick rolled gold, 1/10th. Unlike gold plate, gold filled pens never lose this layer. The pen is long and heavy. At 137mm and 150mm posted it makes for a larger than standard size fountain pens. Together with its weight this provides for a great grip and feel in the hand. The pen uses a standard international size cartridges, thus very ease to refill and use. It can also be used with a piston converter. The 18k gold nib is a medium size, very smooth on the paper, very clean writer with no excess ink, so it's great for study lines that are thick and solid. Gorgeous leaf shaped clip give the pen. The pen is in mint, NOS never used condition.
