Description;

This is a small but beautifully made silver eye dropper from the prestigious Japanese manufacturers Shiseido. It was made in Japan around 1939 and is in fabulous condition.

The pen is an eye dropper but it features an Onoto style ink shut off device. The use of Onoto designs was quite common on Japanese pens as they were great admirers of the british company and Onoto pens were very popular in Japan generally.

The cap and barrel are finished in silver with a silver clip. The blind cap turns to operate the cone shaped ink shut off mecganism too prevent leaks when the pen was carried.

The stunning hand crafted nib is made from spring steel and writes with a Fine line, as do most Japanese pens. The steel nib has a surprising amount of flex to it.

The pen is in excellent condition with minor marks commensurate with use. There are no dings or dents to the silver case.

Condition:  Grade A
