SONNET ANCIENT CHINA SPECIAL EDITION 18K Fountain Pen (2207186_M1E)
The journey continues with the Parker Sonnet Special Edition 2024, the latest addition to the ‘Intrepid Journeys’ collection, which this year draws its inspiration from the majesty of the Great Wall of China. The incomparable grandeur and intricate architecture of this iconic landmark, snaking thousands of miles over mountain peaks and wooded valleys, evokes a sense of wanderlust and speaks to our desire to expand our horizons. Parker’s craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail are evident; each pen featuring a rhodium-finished 18k solid gold nib, brushed steel shell accentuated with gold trims, and a new grey lacquer on the brass barrel. However, it’s the laser-etched design of the palladium-coated, sterling silver cap that scales new heights of imagination. Repeated wall rampart motifs are complemented by swooping rooflines representing the Jiayu Pass, whilst distinct towers and arches reflect the breathtaking architecture of the wall’s Badaling Section. Put the World into Words.

The Ancient China Edition draws its inspiration from the majesty of the Great Wall of China. The incomparable grandeur and intricate architecture of this iconic landmark, snaking thousands of miles over mountain peaks and wooded valleys, speaks to our desire to expand our horizons.
Parker’s craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail have never been more in evidence, with each pen featuring a rhodium-finished 18k solid gold nib and a brushed steel shell accentuated with gold trims, complementing a new grey lacquer on the brass barrel.
The laser-etched design of the palladium-coated, sterling silver cap, features motifs inspired by the Great Wall of China.
Swooping rooflines representing the Jiayu Pass in the Gobi Desert at the western end of the wall are complemented by distinct towers and arches reflecting the breath-taking architecture of the wall’s Badaling Section.
Repeated rampart motifs combine with groups of watch towers evoking the Mutianyu section of the wall, and even the length of the Great Wall is intricately woven into the design
