Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this Parker Duofold Centennial DNA Flame Red Limited Edition Fountain Pen, which comes with its large Parker lacquered presentation box, certificate, polishing cloth and cartridges. The pen has never been used and is presented in virtually as new condition. Only 100 were produced and this is number 62 – the official number released to the public was 90, as 9 were retained by Parker and 1 was auctioned at the show.
Parker have a long, rich heritage of creating impressive writing instruments and the Duofold range is at the heart of this. With its incredibly detailed production process, including 130 components and 100 quality control tests.
The DNA Red is an iconic pen, produced only for the 2009 London Writing Equipment Show. The chiselled helical ‘DNA’ pattern, with its depth of red and grey tones, is a sight to behold, with the barrel and cap being crafted from the same diffusion bonded material used by Classic Pens for their legendary LB5 offerings. The trim is platinum-plated.
The fountain pen is fitted with an 18k medium nib and it’s a cartridge / converter (supplied) filler, so you have the best of both worlds.
The important details are as follows…
Condition: Virtually As New
Box: Parker
Nib: Medium
With every pen that we sell we provide a card that includes the manufacturer, model, serial / limitation number and date it was purchased from us. We do this because our customers like to have documentation showing that it’s been purchased from a trusted seller. As the Financial Times said recently in their How To Spend It publication – “izods is an e-cache of ultra fine fountain pens”.
