Conway Stewart Luxury Notebook£ 65.00Description
The Conway Stewart Series 100 Classic Black is a mid-sized propelling pencil with a gentle taper and the distinctive CS top-mounted clip designed so the propelling pencil sits low in a shirt pocket/suit pocket to give that sleek appearance.
The Series 100 was first launched in 1954 and quickly became one of the most popular propelling pencils ever made by Conway Stewart. It is a mid-sized propelling pencil that is appreciated today for the 1950's classic torpedo shape, fine balance and easy writing as it was over 60 years ago. The beautiful finish and flawless perfection of these handmade pens are part of Conway Stewart’s proud heritage. The cap has a three 9ct gold cap rings; a broad ring which is stamped with English hallmarks to show its quality and purity, sandwiched between two further 9ct gold rings. There are 2 further 9ct gold rings on the barrel.
Each propelling pencil is housed in a Conway Stewart black leather presentation box which also serves as a showcase propelling pencil stand for your desk.
