For your consideration is an Aikin Lambert & Co. 10 carat gold safety fountain pen. This stunning pen features a 14k gold nib marked "Aikin Lambert & Co No. 4". The body of the pen is composed of ornately detailed 10K gold. J. C. Aikin & Co. started as a jewelry shop that branched off into the specialty of making gold pens and pencil cases, and the name was soon changed to Aikin, Lambert & Co. when Lambert joined the co-partnership. Aikin Lambert & Co. eventually was taken over by Waterman Co. This pen is in wonderful condition showing a warm yellow patina and measuring 5 3/4" long when the nib is exposed and 4" when capped. Provenance: From a New York City jewelry store that operated from the 1800's (19th Century) until its closing in 1920. The contents were attic stored until their sale in 2019 in Wyoming.
