CONDITION
Good antique condition. Intaglio has no chips and a symbol we cant identify. Slider moves effortlessly. No pencil inside currently, these can be obtained with some searching! All Turquoise original, no chips, no replacements or re-glues. Slight roughness to very very tip on where pencil goes, not a problem however.
