Description from the seller
A0000005942
Exceptional and dazzling writing set from the prestigious Parker brand, part of its successful and elegant Sonnet collection. This luxurious set, manufactured in France during the 1990s, consists of a fountain pen and a matching ballpoint pen in the dazzling Cascade Gold finish (also known as Gold Ciselé).
Both instruments are built on a solid metal base coated with a rich 23-karat gold plating. The design features a refined pattern of parallel ribbed lines (fine and bold) running along the body and cap, offering an excellent tactile grip and a spectacular shine reminiscent of fine jewelry pieces. The characteristic Parker arrow-shaped clips complete the timeless aesthetic. The cap of the pen bears the engraving "PARKER - SONNET - FRANCE".
The fountain pen, the jewel of the set, is equipped with a magnificent 18-karat solid gold nib (18K 750), adorned with the classic criss-cross pattern and a subtle rhodium-plated finish. The writing point is Medium (M). The ballpoint operates with a precise twist mechanism.
