Hey all,

This pen has passed testing and is ready for purchase. This listing is for a Sheaffer Balance 350 in the brown striated color with a 14k fine gold nib. The pen is a golden example of a Sheaffer Balance lever filler. The colors are great, the pattern is crisp/clear, the gold trim is great, and imprints are crisp. The nib was a little scratchy when received so it has been micromeshed to get a smooth writing experience. What's special about this pen specifically is the ink window which is known to amber badly has not effected this one as bad. Its clear enough to be useable and I have photo'd the ink levels while it was in testing. Here are more details on the pen:
