Sometimes the completely inexplicable turns up – inexplicable to me, at least, though some of you out there may know about the Verelyte.
It’s a highly decorative button-filler. I have seen somewhat similar patterns before though I can’t remember where. I don’t remember ever seeing the name before.
I can’t tell what the nib is made of, nor could I guess at the manufacturing date with any accuracy. If you pushed me I’d say late thirties.
I love these mystery pens that appear now and again.

This is a new one for me (which means very, very little), though I have seen Continental pens in similar material, seemingly French or Italian second-tier.
Perhaps that is where I have seen such a pattern.
The Verelyte seems to have been a model made by an Italian company, Pagliero, in the 1940s (see https://www.tenpen.it/reading/history-italian-fountain-pen-vol-2-oz, pp85 et seq)

Thank you, Bert. That solves the problem!
While I’ve never heard of the brand (and not surprised it is possibly a homage/clone pen from an earlier Italian company), that material might have stuck in your head for a reason. In the late 30s-40s, a number of pens were made with exceedingly similar plastics. The interesting part is that they are found in both high-and low-end pens. My two specific examples would be the Waterman Ink-Vue series, where they appended “Ray” to the color (as in Silver Ray). I think. And then you can find a number of different colors in this patter in Wearever pens of the time. As serendipity would have it, I was helping a new pen friend at our local pen club just yesterday to restore a Wearever like this in green.
Thank you, Jon. I should have remembered the Ink-Vue, actually one of my favourite pens when I can get hold of one – both to restore and to use. Though I was unaware of such a Wearever it doesn’t surprise me. They came in so many colourful patterns.
Nice pens!
Beautiful pattern.
