AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Parker 180 Place Vendôme Grain d’Orge argentata with an exclusive reversible nib in solid gold, silver-plated with a wonderful vintage silver-colored case, in virtually perfect condition.

Elegant Parker 180 fountain pen from the refined Place Vendôme collection, made in France in the early 1980s. A fascinating example of Parker’s tradition, characterized by slender proportions, refined metal finishes, and a design that combines classic elegance with technical innovation.

The barrel and cap feature a splendid guilloché Grain d’Orge engraving, the characteristic barley grain motif that embellishes the entire silver surface, creating a refined play of reflections. The famous Parker clip in the shape of an arrow, the glossy finishes, and the black section complete a set of notable aesthetic harmony.

The most distinctive element is the extraordinary triangular reversible nib, an authentic peculiarity of the Parker 180. Designed to allow writing on both sides by a 180-degree rotation, it represents one of the most original technical solutions developed by the American maison. A detail particularly appreciated by enthusiasts of vintage writing instruments and Parker innovations.

The fountain pen is in excellent condition and comes with an elegant coordinated Parker case, which further enhances its presentation. A splendid opportunity to enrich a collection of historical pens with a model of distinctive design, capable of uniting the charm of French craftsmanship with the pleasure of traditional writing.

Tracked shipping and careful packaging; low-cost couriers will not be used.
