Thanks for looking at my listing for the Onoto Heritage No 1 Henry Simpole Sterling Silver Overlay with a Fine (F) 18k gold nib. This is an stunning fountain pen with an excellent overlay crafted by the late Henry Simpole. It is a limited edition pen (#95/500) which is becoming scarcer to find.
The pen has been lightly used and thus is in excellent condition. This pen has recently been serviced by Onoto (06/2025) including replacement of the grip section which has completely fixed the issue of the cap pulling out the section accidentally when uncapping (a commonly encountered issue with this model).
This pen includes the original documents, converter and a green leather Onoto pen pouch.
Please see the photos for full details of the condition as this forms part of the overall description of the pen.
The pen will be securely packaged and shipped by Royal Mail Special Delivery.
Please feel free to get in contact if you have any questions.
