Unnamed bakelite pen with a Rupp nib

A restoration from this weekend. An unnamed French (?) pen c. 1940 in Bakelite with gold plated trims. This is a fairly large button filler pen. It needed a new sac and only a light clean and polish.

It sports a steel nib with an imprint of a lion within a circle with the words Iridium Tipped surrounding it and looks to be a Rupp nib. (From what I have been able to find out, Georg Peter Rupp was a nib maker in Heidelberg from 1920's to 1970.)
