Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this Montblanc Meisterstück 164 Classique Czar Nikolai I Vermeil Ballpoint Pen, which comes with an IZODS presentation box. The pen is presented in overall fair condition, but there are usage marks, some wear to the gold trim and some marks on the barrel, hence the lower price.
The Czar Nikolai writing instruments are one of the most famous offerings from the past 30 years and were produced from 1997-2002.
They were available in two versions, vermeil and platinum plated. This is the vermeil (gold-plated over sterling silver) version and when contrasted with the vibrant green malachite cap, it really is a very striking writing instrument. Malachite was chosen for this pen because it was the stone of the Russian Czars. The intricate detailing is beautiful and the gold-plated barrel and trim provide a brightness but at the same time never a brash look. The appropriate Germany and serial number markings can be found on the clip ring.
The pen is fitted with a new refill.
The important details are as follows...
- Fair Condition
- New Refill
- IZODS Presentation Box
With every pen that we sell we provide a card that includes the manufacturer, model, serial / limitation number and date it was purchased from us. We do this because our customers like to have documentation showing that it’s been purchased from a trusted seller.
