This is a Parker Duofold Classic Pens CP5 Modern in sterling silver, released in 1999. The Modern has tapered ends evoking the original streamline Parker Duofold, introduced in 1929. The cap and barrel are engraved in a high relief Fishnet pattern, created on a modern engraving machine, intended to reflect contemporary design, and made from two linear engravings: circular rings counterpointed with a wavy diamond pattern. The pen is fitted with the tapered cap top and emblem featured on the 1996 style modern Duofolds. The nib is an 18 karat gold Parker Duofold banner M medium and the trim is gold plated. The cap band has CP5 and the 500 of 1,888 edition number laser engraved. The edition was limited to 500 pieces, so this pen represents the final number of the edition.

A throwback photo from 2008. This is a set of LB2 Kimono prototypes with the artwork on Classic Pens Legend pens, done in the Togidashi Maki-E technique, which is a combination of two painted designs that run the length of the cap, barrel and section in a continuous flow. The base colors are applied in wide bands that softly transition from one color to the next down the length of the pen. A fine gold dust is then sprinkled over the cap and barrel, which gives the finish its sheen. Finally, the artist paints the raised concentric rings of alternating silver and gold. Every pen carries the Red Seal Signature of the artist, Tatsuya Todo, near the base of the barrel. The LB2 line was released in 2006 as 100 modern Parker Duofold Centennial based fountain pen duets in complimentary colors: a green theme named Shinrin (Forest) and an orange-brown theme named Sakyu (Desert). #pencollecting #fountainpen #parker #parkerpen #parkerduofold #duofold #makie #classicpens #lambroupens #lambrou #togidashi #kimono #penhero https://www.instagram.com/p/CV_e2jePomQ/?utm_medium=tumblr
