Inverted clear glass bottle inside each inkwell. Round depression in center of base between inkwells to hold nibs and things.

Holds a LOT of ink - great for your desk. New old stock Esterbrook renew point - fine or medium available, let us know which you prefer. Very good condition.

5. Esterbrook Eight-Ball Desk Set $45

Model 113 black porcelain desk set - when we think of Esterbrook desk sets, this is usually the model, commonly referred to as the Eight-Ball! Includes Esterbrook lever filling desk pen in black with black taper. FP measures 7 inches long. New old stock Esterbrook renew point - fine or medium available, let us know which you prefer. Base is 3.25 inches diameter. Very good condition.

6. Esterbrook Double Desk Set - Marble Base $150

Esterbrook only made a few models over the year with fancier marble bases, many times referred to as the Executive styles. This is a fairly early double DipLess Inkwell set and is absolutely pristine - the original paper inserts are in each inkwell, no signs of ink in the inkwells ever. The DipLess pens with are black with one clear taper and one translucent red taper and they are not original to the set, sadly the original pens were missing when the desk set was found. The inkwells are made of black bakelite and lift out from the base, the lid also removes from each. Marble base is white with some light grey and copper veining. Base measures 5 x 10 inches.


7. Wahl Eversharp Desk Set - Brazilian Bronze $95

The Brazilian Bronze gold seal FP with matching socket are the prizes in this set, unfortunately the green marble base has a number of small nicks on the edges - not major, but they are there! Base measures 3 x 3.5 inches. Double gold filled bands on pen holder and pen - note that the gold band between pen and taper is missing. FP is lever fill. Eversharp 14KT gold nib in firm fine point. FP measures 8.25 inches long. Color on FP is very good, slightly darkened area at end of barrel where it meets taper and at end meeting section. The pen holder is darker than it should be, picked up some ink staining over the years.

8. Eversharp Model 200 Desk Set $30
Ivory plastic art deco styled base is holding a bright red Parker Jotter desk style ballpoint pen. No, the pen is not original to the set, but could be since this set was made during that transitional Eversharp-Parker period in the 1960s. Base measures 3 x 4.5 inches. Red pen is 6.5 inches long. Very good condition.

9. Parker 51 Magnetix Desk Set $75

Green marble single desk set with copper veining and brass hardware. Parker 51 black aerometric filling desk pen has 14KT gold hooded nib in fine point. FP measures 6.5 inches long. Base measures 5.75 x 3.5 inches. Brass pen holder across front is not engraved. Both pen and desk set are in very good condition.

11. Parker Jotter Desk Set $40

Quite the high tech - flying saucer look! Black plastic base, Parker Jotter is embossed around the center raised pen holder. Black Parker Jotter ballpoint pen measures 6.25 inches long. Base is 4.25 inches diameter. Very good condition.

12. Parker Jotter - Flighter Desk Set $60

Another Flying Saucer desk set, but with the Flighter Jotter desk ballpoint pen and Flighter trim recessed in pen holder. Pen measures 6.5 inches long. Base is 4.25 inches diameter. Very good condition.

13. Sheaffer Royal Blue Desk Set $15

This style of desk set was primarily sold by Sheaffer's ad specialty division and usually had a company logo on the flat front surface. This one, I am told is a bit unusual because of the clear piece against the back - advertising or a company name would have been inserted below this piece. Matching royal blue Sheaffer desk style ballpoint pen uses standard Sheaffer BP refills. Base measures 4.25 x 3.5 inches, BP measures 7 inches long. Both in very good condition showing just light surface wear.

14. Sheaffer Diamond Desk Set $150

Very beautiful diamond shaped green and copper veined onyx desk set with black pen holder - gold filled band on holder and matching Sheaffer jade green desk fountain pen. Desk pen is in what I refer to as the light jade - color is even throughout, black taper. Lever fill. Sheaffer Feather Touch 14KT gold nib in fine point. Base measures 6.75 x 4.5 at widest points. FP measures 7.25 inches long. Both pieces in very good condition - especially the pen with outstanding color.

15. Sheaffer Model 501H Desk Set $45

Black glass desk set with brass center accent. Black Touchdown Tip-Dip style fountain pen. Pen threads into holder. Pen is touchdown filling, Sheaffers steel nib in medium point. Base measures 4 inches square, FP is 7 inches long. Original Sheaffer label on bottom of base. Both pen and base are in very good condition.

16. Sheaffer Imperial Marble Desk Set $75

Unusual color of marble for a Sheaffer set - mix of ivory, beige and bits of darker tan mixed in on this base. Brass pen holder. New old stock Sheaffer Imperial desk pen in black, Sheaffer inlaid steel nib in medium point - the original label on section says so! Cartridge/converter fill - converter is included. Base measures 3.5 x 4 inches. FP is 6.75 inches long. One small flake on top of the front left corner of base, otherwise very good, FP is excellent, basically new.

17. Sheaffer Lenox Desk Set $125

Brand new in the box, all the cellophane wrappers still intact, someone else can have the pleasure of unwrapping this one! Lenox ivory single desk set with Sheaffer Imperial brown desk ballpoint pen. Pen has the chalkmarks. Pen holder is in cellophane with Sheaffer sticker on the trim. It's mint!

18. Sheaffer Model H90J Desk Set $75

Jet black glass single desk set with contoured back corners and curved front edge. Polished brass trim and pen holder. Sheaffer Touchdown black desk fountain pen with 14KT gold two tone Triumph nib in Fine/medium point. Not quite fine point, but not a full medium either! Original Sheaffer label is on bottom of base. Base measures 3.5 x 4 inches. Pen is 7 inches long. Pen holder and pen are the threaded style. Very good condition.

19. Sheaffer Snorkel Desk Set $70

White onyx single desk set with polished brass pen holder and black Sheaffer Snorkel desk pen. Pen has 14KT gold two tone Triumph nib in fine point, measures 6.75 inches long. Base is 4 x 7 inches. Pen holder and pen are the threaded style. Pen is in very good condition, as is the base with exception of several tiny nicks to front top edge - hard to see, but you can feel them when you rub your finger along the edge.
