CROSS Gold-plated pen set with red leather case

This appears to be a vintage CROSS pen set consisting of a ballpoint pen and mechanical pencil in gold-plated finish, accompanied by their original red leather case. CROSS has been manufacturing fine writing instruments since 1846, becoming particularly known for their quality and craftsmanship in the mid-20th century.

CROSS pen sets like this were popular status symbols and professional accessories from the 1950s through the 1990s. They remain highly valued by writing instrument collectors and professionals who appreciate traditional writing tools for their reliability, craftsmanship, and classic styling. The leather case, marked with the CROSS logo and noted as 'TOP GRAIN COWHIDE,' adds to the set's collectible appeal.
