IRIDIUM POINT PEN CO Fountain Pen

Circa:1910 Colour: Chased Hard Black Rubber. Nib: Flexible 'Medium'

A large fountain pen made during the period of greatest vigour, strength and success within Manhattan, New York (the home of the fountain pen).

Iridium is a dense and hardest of metals and is used to create the tough tip to the nib which gives it a long life.  The gold clip is ball-ended and the slip-cap has a broad gold band.  The very earliest pen caps (as found on this eyedropper pen) were slip-caps; that is, you simply pulled them off and pushed them back on, they hold their place through friction between the parts.  The inscription on the barrel reads: "HARD IRIDIUM POINT PEN Co, NEW YORK".  Ink filling is by the supplied eye-dropper. The original nib reads: "HARD IRIDIUM POINT PEN Co, NY, 14K,  1st Quality".  Solid gold 14 carat flexible 'medium' nib.  Trim is rolled gold.  The pen still writes very smoothly. Condition is excellent.  The nib is large ( slightly bigger than a Parker 'Big Red').   Length: 5 3/4" - 7 1/4" 

A very rare 100 year old pen which still produces great handwriting.
