Vintage Sheaffer Targa Sterling Silver Fountain Pen – 14k Gold Nib, Australian Made, c.1970s
A superb vintage Sheaffer Targa fountain pen in solid sterling silver with a 14k gold nib. This example was made in Australia during the 1970s, making it a particularly collectable piece, as most Targas were produced in the USA or UK.
The Targa range was introduced by Sheaffer in 1976 and became instantly recognisable for its elegant, modern flat-top design, with many luxury finishes. This sterling silver edition, with its engine-turned patterned barrel and cap, is among the most desirable models, offering both timeless style and excellent writing performance.
