Vintage 14K Gold PARKER Art Deco Mechanical Pencil  - Please Read Listing

Description

Vintage 14K Gold PARKER 51 Mechanical Pencil
I was fortunate to get this piece from an estate I purchased a couple of years ago. This was a high end vacation estate belonging to a prominent American business family out of San Francisco. This was left inside of a desk and unfortunately there was no case or matching pen.
This is a solid 14K gold on this pencil. NOT gold filled.
Has a beautiful art deco pattern that extends the length of the gold top.
The design almost looks like sky scrapers extending toward the top of the pencil.
Works wonderfully. No problems.
There are 14K marks in the middle as well as the writing end of the piece.
You can clearly see the 14K mark next to the Parker mark in the middle.
I would assume this was paired with a pen, which I did not find.
I would guess it is a Parker 51 set but I am not an expert on Parker writing pieces.
Minimal signs of wear, No cracks to the body.
Overall length is 5 3/16 inches. The top is capped of with a mother of pearl accent.
I was going to polish out gold but the tarnish actually highlighted the art deco design for photographing.
Gold would look even better polished up.
Please see the photos to determine the overall condition for yourself.
Message me with any questions.
Please do not be discouraged by the lack of feedback on this account. This is a new account but we are not new to eBay. We have started a separate store to break up the items we have for sale.
We can provide you with our other seller name so you can see our feedback and items we sell there. eBay discourages us from listing it here.

Please Read:
Please keep in mind that almost all of what we sell in our eBay store are vintage pieces. We have an estate clearing business where we purchase huge groupings of items. We do our best to photograph and detail everything that we can see visually. There may variations or details that we may have overlooked in our description. We are not experts on any set of items. If you have questions, make sure you message us and ask us questions if you have any concerns. We are limited to 12 photos with each listing. If additional photos are needed, feel free to message us and we will get you the information you need to make a good judgement before you buy. Please use the photos and information we provide to determine the overall condition and quality of the piece before you bid on or purchase any items. If you have any doubts or feel that the items you are looking at are not exactly what you are looking for, we would encourage you to rethink your decision to bid or purchase our items. We get requests to return items that are mainly buyers remorse. We want you to feel comfortable buying our items, ask questions, request more photos, message us, anything, we implore you to buy with confidence. We can not take returns because it costs us time and money. We are not Amazon with an inventory to send you different items. Please, and again, we say please, do not purchase or bid on our items if you do not feel comfortable with any part of our listing. By clicking the buy or bid now button you are agreeing to everything we have defined in our listing including the shipping charges. If you are new to buying on eBay, we would recommend doing your research on exactly how eBay works. We sell hundreds of items on eBay every year and we appreciate every customer we have ever sold to but please make sure really need what we are selling. We do not want you to be discouraged from buying from us by any means but we have to make things clear.
Furniture Delivery:
All of our furniture listings are usually listed with the "Local Pick Up" option. We do, however, have the option with our retail used furniture business to deliver pieces. We operate our store out of Reno, Nevada and can deliver
up to 200 miles from our location. This would include all of the Bay Area as well. This delivery would be an additional and separate charge and must be negotiated prior to any sale. If you are interested in having one of our pieces delivered, please message us prior to any sale so we can discuss the details and options. We can always negotiate.
What I Sell:
This eBay store is filled with hundreds of items we find as part of an estate clearing business that we have. There is everything from furniture, vintage clothing, jewelry, vintage books, porcelain, and pretty much whatever we find. Our business is growing so that means we are finding more stuff to list in our eBay store.

We are constantly finding all types of cool stuff. Don't miss out
Payment:
We ask that all items be paid for within 48 hours of purchase. We only take payment through PayPal. After 48 hours, a payment reminder will be sent and an unpaid item claim will be opened with eBay.
Shipping:
Our shipping prices are usually based on the lowest cost, economy shipping either through the U.S. Postal Service or FedEx. Sometimes that may be Priority Mail and other times that may be FedEx Ground which will take longer. By clicking the buy button on my items, you are agreeing to the shipping charge that we have posted on our listings. We are always fair in determining our shipping charges. Keep in mind that eBay takes a portion of all money from sales, including shipping charges (13% total) Keep in mind we have to balance this out to keep from actually losing money. We usually process our orders within 1 day of payment. Arrangements can always be made for expedited, priority shipping. If you are interested in Priority or Express shipping, you may message us prior to purchasing an item and we can calculate an estimate or at purchase, message us prior to paying by requesting an invoice of charges and let me know that you are requesting Priority shipping.
eB
ay lists estimated times of delivery on all listings now at their own discretion. Please keep in mind that this is "only an estimate". Actual delivery times will vary.
We are shipping out of Nevada so items shipping to the east coast will always take time. We provide tracking numbers for all our items so you can monitor your shipment online and have the best idea of actual delivery time.
Insurance:
Unfortunately, items may get damaged during shipping. We generally use our own discretion in adding shipping insurance to those items we feel may have the potential to be damaged during shipping. We will usually insure breakables over 0. This insurance is usually added into the cost of our shipping charge. Priority shipping will guarantee items up to 0 for any items. If you want to make sure to add insurance or Priority shipping to any items, please message me or request an invoice at purchase and let me know. Added insurance will be at your own cost and added to your invoice.
Combined Shipping:
If you are purchasing multiple items from our store, we will always do our best to package and ship items together. Some breakable items may require packaging separately to protect them in shipping. Other than that, most items can be combined. If you do purchase multiple items and would like combined, please request an invoice, ask for combined shipping, and we will determine a cost. Combined shipping is also done at the lowest, most economical shipping through FedEx or the Postal Service. If you would like Priority shipping, please let me know when you request an invoice for total charges.
Returns:
We do not offer returns. Buy with confidence.
International Shipping:
We can now ship to Canada. Our listings show that we do not do international shipping
but arrangements can be made if it is worthwhile. If you are in Canada and are interested in purchasing something from our store, please message us prior to purchasing item and we can see if we can manage it. International shipping requires additional paperwork and proper packaging. Shipping charges will be different than charges that actually appear on our listings.
