It is MOP on the star for this version, in addition, the trim is rose gold. They also did a model with a regular star , plain gold trim.

 

I much prefer teh rose gold version!

Yes indeed, I too prefer rose gold in preference to yellow gold. I have been trying to acquire the rose gold Cross without much success :(

Yes, I believe so. Rose or red gold has a higher copper content that gives it its reddish hue. Then there is green gold which is an alloy of gold, silver and copper used for making jewelry. White gold, all the rage now has platinum that gives it its whitish colour. Can antoniosz confirm this?

Yay! Great! Bill Riepl pictures...

 

Bill, Thanks for posting these, and.... more, please!

 

P.S.: Rose gold is red gold indeed, Denis, like FC indicated. Also called Russian gold sometimes.

 

Kind regards,

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
