About the Item

This exquisite fountain pen by Esterbrook, crafted circa 1935, exemplifies the elegance and innovation of the Art Deco era. Made with a combination of chrome, lucite, and black bakelite, it highlights the period’s passion for blending cutting-edge materials with sleek, geometric designs. The chrome accents provide a polished metallic finish, while the lucite element adds a translucent, modern touch, showcasing the advancements in synthetic materials popular in the 1930s. The black bakelite—a celebrated material of the era due to its durability and versatility—grounds the design with a bold and luxurious appearance. Signed Esterbrook, this piece reflects the fountain pen manufacturer’s commitment to producing reliable, high-quality writing instruments. Known for their iconic designs, Esterbrook pens were favored by professionals and creatives alike, blending functionality and aesthetic sophistication. This Art Deco fountain pen is more than a writing tool; it’s a piece of American design history, perfect for collectors of vintage writing instruments, Art Deco accessories, or anyone seeking a stylish addition to their desk or collection. An ideal gift for enthusiasts of early 20th-century craftsmanship, this pen is both a practical and decorative treasure from a bygone era. Functioning and in Excellent Vintage Condition.
