ABOUT PRODUCTID 19964
This neoclassical travel pen from late 19th-century Imperial Russia is crafted entirely from bronze in a warm, dark hue, embodying the refined craftsmanship of its era. The slender cylindrical body, measuring 17 cm in length and 0.8 cm in diameter, is accented by two subtle raised rings that serve both decorative and structural purposes. The screw-on cap features a detailed relief of the double-headed imperial eagle, a powerful symbol of authority and heritage. The bronze surface exhibits a smooth satin sheen, with natural patina gently darkening the recesses and highlighting the relief details. The pen's components are precisely fitted, with no visible gaps or looseness, and the ends are softly rounded for harmonious proportions. The condition is very good—there are no damages, visible repairs, or signs of modern restoration; only minor marks consistent with age are present.This pen evokes the atmosphere of late Imperial Russia, when journeys across vast territories were marked by the significance of every written word. The soft bronze glow and the heraldic eagle on the cap tell a story of tradition, dignity, and the practical beauty of personal objects that accompanied officials and intellectuals alike. The restrained decoration and precise geometry reflect a respect for craftsmanship and a balance between function and symbolic meaning, firmly rooted in the neoclassical aesthetic of 19th-century Russia.The pen can be displayed on a vintage writing desk, in a glass collector’s case, or atop a period dressing table, where it serves as a subtle historical accent. It pairs well with antique writing accessories—such as inkwells, seals, or classic stationery—building a cohesive narrative of the past. Interiors with classical, eclectic, or collector’s character may incorporate this piece as a refined,
