The Parker Duofold Fountain pen was designed as a reproduction of Parkers Flagship Duofold Fountain Pens of the 1920's. Its size, shape and balance re-create that magnificient style to perfection. Originally called the Duofold as it held twice as much ink as other fountain pens of its day the Duofold can boast some big names as users including General Douglas MacArthur, Winston Churchill and President Bush Snr just to name a few. With its grand size and solid 18ct gold nib this fountain pen is elegant in the hand and a joy to use! Made of solid 18ct gold this magnificent piece is the height of prestige and a fantastic choice for that special milestone occasion.
