Discover the exquisite Unic Safety Boxed Pen & Pencil Set, a testament to French craftsmanship from a maker renowned for high-quality vermeil and gold overlay fountain pens since 1919. This stunning set features beautiful mottled ebonite, richly adorned with a gold-plated metal overlay in a distinctive checkerboard pattern. The accompanying pencil boasts an incredibly intricate guilloché waves pattern overlay, with hallmarks on both pieces suggesting a solid gold overlay, though this remains unconfirmed without further markings.

Experience an extremely precise and responsive nib that makes for a delightful daily driver. It writes like a soft manifold, offering the option to flex, and provides a subtle feedback reminiscent of modern Sailor pens, which can be smoothed further if desired. This pen has been meticulously tested on Rhodia 80gsm A5 pad with Pelikan 4001 Royal Blue ink.

The pen's gold-filled overlay is in exceptionally clean condition, free from dents or scratches. The ebonite has been carefully rejuvenated, and the overlay lightly hand-polished, restoring the ebonite's original 'softness'. The nib has been expertly heat-set and tuned for optimal flex and smoothness.
