This is an interesting vintage pen that has survived pretty well. Probably from the 1920s, this Kenrick Jefferson Fountain Pen who were an Office Supply Company based in West Bromwich in the Midlands of England. It was possibly made by Mabie Todd, although we have no definite confirmation of this. These pens were known as 'The Supa Pen' with a distinctive apricot end to the cap.
