Sampson Mordan (Unmarked apart from the Mordan arrow that indicates solid gold)
...Dip fountain pen and telescopic propelling pencil combo.
Made from solid gold 9ct or better. It is unmarked but tested and also has the Mordan arrow.
Interestingly the top of the pen has the Gucci logo and 1870 engraved so not sure if this is associated to someone from Gucci perhaps.
The pen weighs 17.8 grams and although this is not all gold as there are some metal components internally, I think there is a lot of gold content based on the quality.
Country of manufacture Made in England Patterning & trim 9ct or better solid gold with nice line and dot patterning Filling Mechanism Dip Pen and telescopic pencil with propelling mechanism Serviced / Working
Everything works exactly as it should do. Barrel
Made from solid gold that is unmarked but tested as 9ct or better.
It is rather heavy and well weighted. This is a rather high quality pen so I think there is quite a lot of gold content. The weight is 17.8 grams
The top of the pen has the Gucci logo and 1870 engraved well so not sure if this pen was associated to someone from Gucci or retailed by them perhaps as it is unmarked despite being 100% Sampson Mordan
