| As new and unused, a very rare early 1900s Wyvern model 20S eyedropper fountain pen complete with the eyedropper glass ink filling pipette and in the original presentation box with the paper leaflet headed Directions for use.
Manufactured in black vulcanite material with a chased patterning of waves effect. Completely authentic having the proper warranted 14 carat gold broad point size nib.
By the turn of the eighteenth century, based in Leicestershire,the Wyvern fountain pen company had become established in the Midlands of the U.K. The company derived its trade name Wyvern from the mythical two legged barbed tailed Dragon featured on the heraldic coat of arms of Leicestershire.
The Wyvern fountain pen company ceased business in 1955.
For enthusiast fountain pen collectors this is undoubtedly an exceptional rarity. |
