Description6x1x0.5 inch white paperboard box that contains the handle portion of a dip ink pen. The pen has a gold ferrule with an engraved checkerboard pattern and a white, iridescent, mother of pearl-look handle. The nib, the pointed part of the pen that distributes the ink onto the paper, is missing. The nib could have been shaped from the shaft of a bird's feather since the items is described as an "Old Quill Pen" on a tag in the box.
