Aikin Lambert and Co. Solid Gold pen w/ Aikin Lambert #3 Nib (In original case)

By veggie627, 7 August, 2007
Description

The nib says "Aikin Lambert & Co. No.3" and just below that (on the pen body) it says "Solid Gold A.L. & Co."

The body of the pen is approx. 6 inches long, with half of it being an ornate design of leaves with a winding ribbon going around it. It is a very slender pen.

It is also in a vaded blue (velvet?) case, which I believe may be the original case, based on the fading of the color.
