Parker 100th Anniversary Duofold Edition_____

The year 2021 marks 100 years since the launch of the iconic Parker Duofold fountain pen, and to celebrate this milestone Parker has launched a dedicated special edition that will remain in the market for 1 year. Launched in 1921, the Parker Duofold’s bold and disruptive “Big Red” color stirred the interest of consumers globally and paved the way for many more of its daring colors that Duofold is renowned for. The Duofold embodied everything the roaring 1920’s was about: exuberant popular culture and a time when many people indulged in new styles and rejected many traditional colors. Showcasing Parker’s 130 years of design innovation and craftsmanship, the Duofold 100th Anniversary Special Edition will be unique in its design but will feel distinctively like a Duofold. The Duofold 100th Anniversary Centennial Edition takes inspiration from those early experiments by delicately fusing multiple thin layers of precious resin together to form an intricate pattern on the cap and barrel. Each pen comprises three precious resins, and although made with a different process today, each resin is carefully selected to create alternating bands of colors, a clear nod to those early experiments. The fountain pen is enhanced with an 18kt gold nib available in medium and fine widths. Cartridge/converter fill with the converter supplied.

Parker and his passion to discover the world. Travel through time, cultures and geographies with Parker. Parker is launching the 2018 Duofold Limited Edition to celebrate its 130th anniversary and to pay tribute to its founder, George Safford Parker. He went on his first trip to Paris in 1900 to discover the wonders of the Exposition Universelle. His passion for travel took him around the world, from Egypt to South America, and China where he traveled many times to purchase traditional iron paintings in Wuhu, in the Anhui province. The Orient fostered his imagination and creation, giving birth to the Mandarin Yellow Duofold color, inspired from a vase George once found in Japan. Only 1,300 numbered pieces of the 2018 Duofold Limited Edition will be produced, as a testament to its 130th anniversary. The pattern from the cap is inspired by the diagram of the globe looked at from the poles. The blue semi- precious stone at the top of the cap is a Lapis Lazuli that evokes the colors of the ocean on which George had so frequently travelled. Each stone is delicately selected and will be unique with its own design. The body is brass with a lazered golden lines map covered with a deep blue colored enamel with 22 components manually assembled in Nantes (France). The bi-color gold nib features a compass eluding to the science of navigation and the steamships George used while traveling the world and the nib is 18kt gold in fine or medium width with after sale exchange available in XF and B.

The birth of the iconic Duofold in 1921 heralded a Golden Age for writing instruments. This Lucky 8 Limited Edition celebrates Parker's 120-year heritage of excellence and a series of remarkable coincidences surrounding the number 8 and Luck(Parker's birth year of 1888; the auspiciousnes of the number 8 in Chinese culture-representing luck and prosperity; and Parker's famed Lucky Curve feeder innovation).
