Parker Duofold Mandarin Yellow Limited Edition Fountain Pen

This is a Parker Duofold Mandarin Yellow Limited Edition fountain pen, specifically a modern recreation of the iconic 1927 George Parker design. The pen features a vibrant, high-grade resin barrel and cap in a striking 'Mandarin Yellow' hue, contrasted by black end pieces and gold-plated appointments. The barrel displays a clear, deep imprint including the 'DUOFOLD' logo and Parker manufacturing marks. A notable feature is the gold-plated arrow clip and the triple cap bands. Each pen is individually numbered, as evidenced by the accompanying gold-toned medallion in the presentation box which indicates this is number 5406. The item appears to be in excellent, near-mint condition with no visible cracks, chips, or major scratches. The high-gloss finish remains bright, and the metal trim shows minimal signs of oxidation or wear. This specific model was released in 1995 as a limited run of 10,000 units, making it a highly sought-after piece for collectors due to its historical significance to the Parker brand and its superior craftsmanship using modern acrylic materials that are more durable than the original 1920s brittle radite.
