About the Item

A scarce novelty ceramic lidded desk tidy modeled as a Parker fountain pen made by The Silver Crane Company and made under licence from The Parker Pen Co. Ltd in 1984.

The cover has the distinctive Parker arrow shaped clip. The box is decorated in polished black glazes with gilded elements emulating one of the most classic styles produced by Parker. With printed makers marks to the base and the date 1984. This has to be a must for every serious pen collector! In very good original condition.
