Pre-Owned Pens

Why give just a pen when you can give a pen and cufflinks? Our Waterman Expert set appears to come direct from the 1990s, completely unused. The green-marbled ballpoint pen has no trace of wear, arriving in its original box. After 30 years, the original refill dried out, so we replaced it with a new blue refill. Also included are a pair of gold-plated, hexagon-shaped cufflinks with a medium-to-dark blue center. These also are unused, and still in their original box. A nice gift set.

This green Michel Perchin Fabergé Imperial Russia fountain pen is quite possibly the most beautiful and luxurious writing instrument we have ever offered. Look at how the hand-carved guilloché glitters under than hand-painted polished glass enamel. Simply stunning! Its cap and barrel started as a block of solid sterling silver. Once it was carved into shape by hand, it was guilded in gold and the green-glass enamel was painstakingly applied layer by layer. Made the same way the Fabergé eggs were made, it is more than just a pen. It is both jewelry and art. Numbered 97 of only 500, our preowned luxury pen was never used and comes complete with all of its papers and boxes.

Inspired by the incredible Fabergé Eggs of the Russian czar, the artisans at Michel Perchin set out to recreate the eggs as writing instruments! Our Michel Perchin Fabergé Imperial Russia in red emulates the stunning works of art beautifully. The entire cap and barrel are made of solid sterling silver that was then engraved by hand with intricate guilloché. The higher relief work was coated in gold, while the quilloché work was painstakingly enameled with red glass! Each of only 500 hand-made pens of this design took hundreds of hours to complete. This is pen 97 of 500. You might be the lucky first person to ever write with it, as it has sat unused in storage for nearly 30 years. Comes complete with all of its original boxes and papers. Its 18k gold nib is two-toned and looks like a fine point. Click the headline for close-ups.

Hold that tiger! Speaking of grail pens, what do you think of the hand-painted and lacquered Namiki White Tiger? Numbered 123 of only 300, this stunning piece of writing instrument art has never been used and doesn't show a trace of wear. Decidedly New Old Stock! Click the headline for close-ups. Should you ever want to write with it, it comes with its original, unused converter. Also included are its original treasure chest box and papers. The only thing missing seems to be the key to the treasure chest, which has its lock in the open position. A stunning pinnacle of any pen collection.

The genius designers and craftsman of Omas decided to pay tribute to the first 100 years of the invention of the radio. As such, we present the limited edition Omas Marconi, named for the man largely credited with the invention of the radio...though we know one radio-loving pen collector who would roll up his sleeves and duke it out with Omas over who was the first, if Omas was still in business. Yes, this pen is even more limited, as a result. New Old Stock! This preowned luxury pen has never been inked, and it comes with all of its original boxes. The piston still works smoothly. Its two-tone 18k gold nib is marked medium. The only marking on it seems to be where it was rubbed by one of the protective brass bars while it was in its box.

Omas celebrated the British return of Hong Kong to China in 1997 with a beautifully ornate sterling silver fountain pen called the Omas Return to the Motherland. Our preowned pen is like new and has never been used! New Old Stock luxury writing. It comes with all of its original boxes and papers. We worked the piston without any ink or water, and it moves smoothly. Click the headline for close-ups. Its two-tone 18k gold dragon nib is marked medium. There is a little tarnish from sitting in its box all these years, but the finish is perfect. No scratches or marking.

Sheaffer's first real hit in the post-Golden Age of pens came in the 1970s with the Sheaffer Targa. Its design screams 1970s and '80s. Bold, modern, a cylindrical body squared off on the top and bottom. Our pen has a matte-black finish with gold plated trim. An excellent rollerball pen, its refill is a real tanker. There is an old refill in it now, but we have just ordered some new ones, which we will include with it, as soon as they arrive. Minimal, if any, wear. 13.7cm capped.

Brushed stainless steel Parker pens have been designated "Flighter" models since the 1950s. This modern Parker Sonnet Flighter was made much more recently than that. Yet, this preowned pen maintains classic Parker styling and is a good dependable daily writer. Minimal wear, if any. It has a golden alloy nib that you will find to write a very smooth medium line. This pen uses only Parker converters or cartridges and comes with neither. Click the headline for close-ups. 13.2cm capped.
