Vintage Pens: Sheaffer Balance Lifetime

Description

Sheaffer turned the pen world on its ear when the Sheaffer Balance Lifetime was released. The streamlined, torpedo-shaped pen became the iconic standard image of a fountain pen. Our Sheaffer Balance Lifetime is oversized and fully restored with a new ink sac. We love the “marine green” colors and the less-common two-tone 14k gold nib design. You will write an extremely dry, extra-fine line with some feedback. The vintage pen is in great condition with no cracks and only light wear. Purists might find a teeny-tiny chip at the bottom of the Lifetime white dot annoying, but it is difficult to see unless you are looking for it. 14.2cm capped.
