Description from the seller
Ceramic box, The Silver Crane Company for Parker, Mid-century, 1984 – United Kingdom
Material: Ceramic
Manufacture: The Silver Crane Company
Model: Parker Pen fountain pen
Style: Mid-century
Year: 1984
Country of origin: United Kingdom
Good condition considering its age and use
Dimensions: 9.5 x 37 x 7.5 cm.
Original ceramic pen-shaped Parker box, made by the manufacturer The Silver Crane Company, founded in the United Kingdom. The firm became known for creating popular objects in collaboration with other companies, such as Gordon’s, Shell Car, Kiwi, or with Parker Pen, as in this case. In 1984, the company created novel ceramic pieces inspired by the classic design of Parker Pen models, under license, of fountain pens and inkwells. Its most famous piece from this collaboration is a glazed ceramic box or pen holder in glossy black, with gold details and the characteristic Parker arrow-shaped clip, molded in the giant form of a fountain pen. The interior is divided into two compartments, the pen one and a smaller one intended for the inkwell, although it can be used as a decorative object, a billfold filler... It is a piece that embodies the spirit of postmodernism and 1980s pop culture. Stamp on the base.
Parker Pen Company is an American company dedicated to the creation of luxury pens. It was founded by George Safford Parker in 1888, who quickly became one of the world's most prestigious pen manufacturers, whose pens have been used at key moments in history, such as signing the armistices of World War II or the nuclear disarmament treaties between the US and the USSR during the Cold War. It would produce both luxury pens and more affordable pens, because other economical pens had a major quality problem; Parker would solve this and cover both markets. All Parker Pen fountain pens are recognizable thanks to the iconic arrow-shaped clip, designed for the first time in 1933.
