Charming metal pen box from B.P. & Cie, containing a nice set of approximately 55 original nibs. The lid features an elegant blue and gold typographic composition, with an ornamental frame inspired by the Belle Époque and the mention "Plume Lance", evoking the very tapered and fine shape of the model preserved inside. The printed decoration on the sides as well as the red interior bring a lot of character to the whole. A beautiful testimony to French writing supplies from the late 19th century, both decorative and evocative of the world of antique stationery.
