Duofold is one of the classic names in fountain pens, dating back to the 1920s, when it was one of the most reliable and respected fountain pens. Fashions change, and it was replaced by more curvy designs as the years went by. But fashions return, too, and fortunately, the Duofold also made a comeback as one of Parker's flagship pens.

The styling has been modernised a little, but retains much of the original 1920s look, making it still unmistakably a Duofold. The feed may look much like the early Parker 'Lucky Curve' feeds, but it's a modern, reliable feed inside. The filling system is now a cartridge/converter system, with the converter supplied for those who prefer bottled ink, and cartridges for those who like the easier option!

This Prestige edition is bigger and heavier than the standard model, giving a really solid feel. The barrel and cap feature perfectly-cut patterning in the metallic blue finish. The gold grip section has a brushed finish to give a comfortable grip. The screw-threads for the cap are even square-cut for a more precise feel and better durability.

Supplied in a beautiful gift box. Length 138mm capped, 129mm uncapped, 174mm posted. 14.5mm wide, 10.5mm at grip, weighs 54g.
