Bringing an old pen back to life
I got this attractive jade, no-name, fountain pen at a flee market. It didn't work: it had probably been lying unused for decades, its ink sac was petrified and the lever was stuck. All it needed, though, was some love and a new sac. Sure, there are scratches and discolouration, but still a very nice pen. From material, style and filling mechanism, I'm guessing it’s at least 75 years old
