This is a Cross Verve Platinum Plated fountain pen c. 2004-2008. The 5 3/4 inch Verve Platinum Plated is a cartridge converter pen with a brushed platinum plated finish on the cap and barrel. The nib section is a deep blue. It is fitted with a two-tone conical inlaid 18 karat gold nib and has a unique press to open clip. The Cross Verve line was introduced in 2004 at invitation-only event at Le Jazz Au Bar in New York as part of a marketing arrangement between Cross and Verve Records. Quickly after introduction, Verve was voted Best Pen, Contemporary Design in Pen World International's Tenth Annual Readers' Choice Award. The pen was introduced in four finishes, Platinum Plated, Merlot, Selenium Blue and Radial Chrome, and each finish had four nib choices, broad, medium, fine or extra fine. The Verve was a big departure from Cross traditional designs and was initially a hot seller but was discontinued by 2008. This model retailed for $450. A matching rollerball pen was $200 and a matching ballpoint pen was $150. #pencollecting #fountainpen #cross #crosspen #atcross #verve #crossverve #ververecords #platinum #penhero https://www.instagram.com/p/B8pLBDkjUv0/?igshid=1q9bosz0whura
