A beautiful old small box of metal nibs from the Soennecken company, with its bright blue lithographed lid illustrated with a stylized white nib. This clean and immediately recognizable visual perfectly reflects the graphic identity of the German brand, a major European reference in writing supplies at the turn of the 20th century. The set here is particularly interesting because the box is complete with its 10 original nibs, still stored inside.
