AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Parker Duofold Pen, The Craft of Traveling, 18K
New, unused, perfect condition, everything complete + additionally, an original Parker display stand for the pen.

To celebrate 130 years of innovation and exceptional craftsmanship, Parker has designed a limited edition Duofold. Craft of Traveling, with a run of 1,300 pieces, is a tribute to founder George Swinnerton Parker and his passion for exploring the world.

Now you understand that this is not an ordinary pen. It is a wonderful gift and an object of desire for collectors.

18-karat gold, precious gemstone

The general rule in the economy is: if stock markets are in trouble, the price of gold will rise sharply. The nib of this pen is made from solid 18-karat gold.

Furthermore, the pen is partially gold-plated, and the cap features a gemstone, Lapis Lazuli. The stone is opaque and mainly composed of mineral lazurite (blue) and pyrite (golden). Each stone is, of course, unique, giving this pen a distinctive character. This stone was chosen for its color, reminiscent of the ocean, which George Parker traveled across many times.

On the corpus, there is a world map with laser-gilded details covered in dark blue lacquer.

Certificate of authenticity

With such a special keepsake, you will also receive an authenticity certificate. The certificate is signed by Geoffrey Parker, the great-grandson of George Swinnerton Parker, the founder of the brand. It includes one of 1,300 numbers — the exact number of pieces produced.

Other accessories

The box contains a welcome brochure, a warranty booklet, and a limited fountain pen with black ink, an ink cartridge, five long black refills, and a pen holder that allows you to place the pen on your desk.
