This is a beautiful Jade (green marble) Sheaffer lever fill white dot (Lifetime) ring top ink pen with a lovely fine Lifetime Sheaffer gold nib Numbered 0361474 lovely to use but a fine, precise nib better suited to small writing - which mine isn't! The pen shows patents from 1912 and 1914 - I would suggest it's 1915-1920 vintage - so knocking on 100 years old. The jade is in very good condition - they are very prone to browning inside where the rubber from the sac reacted with the pen. This has minimal. It is used and has the wear appropriate to its age. Writes very nicely and very precisely. The photos make the nib look bent - it isn't it just the way it has been ground towards the nib.

Would make a very unique Christmas present - will come in a gift box.

Sheaffer were one of the big 4 in America for pen manufacture - the white dot signified a life time guarantee for the pen.

It has been stripped, cleaner, resac'd reassembled tested and polished. It was used to write the description.

I use an ink pen daily and much prefer the feel and expression they give. Restoring them is an enjoyable and rewarding hobby.
