DescriptionThis pen has a white mother-of-pearl handle with a gold end. There is also three separate gold nibs in varying sizes. The gold end of the pen has some very small detailing engraved in pattern of squares and dots. The largest of the three gold pen nibs has "313/MABIE/TODD/& CO./NEW-YORK/6" engraved on the top face. The second largest nib has the words "AIKIN/LAMBERT/& CO./No 5" written on the top face. The last nib appears to have been gold at some point, but is now stained and rusted beyond recognition. Engraved on the front face is an image of a globe with the word "UNIVERSE" running diagonally across.
