The Parker Sonnet was introduced in 1994 to replace the Parker 75 as a top line pen, this ballpoint version carries a date code for the third quarter of 1997.
A quite heavy and substantial pen, it is constructed in brass with several coats of black lacquer to give a high gloss, tough finish. The trim is 23Ct.Gold plated.
The pen is in outstanding condition and full working order, it operated by twisting the cap to extend and retract the writing point.
Not to be confused with the 'Parker Sonnet Series' lookalikes, this is a genuine, French made high quality Parker.
