Recently acquired Golden Star Pen Co. (Peking, China), cloisonné enameled yellow with blue flowers and vines ballpoint pen. My understanding is that Golden Star was a Shanghai pen maker started by three Korean brothers in 1932, later opening a Peking (Beijing) factory in 1952.
Not sure the age of this cap-actuated pen, but suspect it has age considering the apparent plating loss showing underlying brass in some areas (note the bottom tip/opening). But it's beautiful in design with a nice heft in the hand.
Writing in style pen. Gorgeous piece.
