DuBarry Fountain Pen

This is an EXCEPTIONAL DuBarry fountain pen.  Here are the facts about this pen:

  • Manufacture:  Eclipse
  • Model:  DuBarry fountain pen
  • Body & cap material:  Celluloid body and cap
  • Body & cap finish:  Olive green chased body and cap
  • Trim:  Gold
  • Nib size:  Fine (see writing sample photo)
  • Nib material:  14kt gold
  • Filling system: Lever filler
  • Condition:  This is a very interesting and obscure pen. It is marked DuBarry on the clip.  Very little is documented about this brand but it was almost certainly a private label brand made by Eclipse.  Probably make for a New York area jeweler. The name DuBarry was almost certainly chosen to give it cachet as Madame DuBarry was the mistress of Louis XV. Very much an Eclipse quality pen with very nice chasing and an unusual color.  This pen is pre-owned and in exceptionally clean condition with just very light micro-scratches from age and light use.  No dents, dings, chips, cracks, wear or damage.  Very crisp, clear chasing.  Excellent color.  No personalization.  Exceptional gold trim with some patina on the cap band.   Exceptionally clean "14K MADE IN U.S.A." nib with excellent point that writes very well.  The pen has a new sac installed and fills and writes very well
