PARKERSonnet Ballpoint Pen | Black Lacquer with Gold Trim | Medium Point Black Ink | Gift Box

What a beautiful pen! I bought the black matte with gold trim. The pen is not only gorgeous to look at, it is also a pleasure to write with. The writing is fine and the ink is good, it didn’t smudge or bleed through my 120gram bullet journal (STM). The weight feels good and comfortable to use. I had originally bought the Waterman Expert in red, which is a beautiful pen but as you can see in the pictures, is a bit thicker than the Parker and longer too. I found the Parker the preferred option for me. I also found the fine ink from the Parker, slightly finer than the waterman. I do a lot of writing and this is my first pen costing more than £10! I feel it is worth it’s price and I’ve bought it on offer.

The pen arrived promptly and looked and felt beautiful; writes beautifully too

High quality and very pleasant to write

Expensive but probably worth it. Really wanted a Schaeffer but Amazon will not deliver these to the lockers

Absolutely stunning pen that's beautifully designed and made. Lovely to hold and write with. I use mine with a Parker Gel refill as I prefer wet ink. I highly recommend this pen. It also comes in a beautiful box, which I keep on my desk.

With its gleaming red and glittering gold, this pen reminds me of the Gryffindor coat of arms—perhaps it was designed by a Harry Potter fan! To me, it's a truly lovely thing that feels as luxurious as it looks, and worth every penny of the £50 that I paid for it. A beautiful gift for anyone that you know who still prefers writing to typing.

Given as a gift and very well received

Beautiful feel and looks great. Chose the Matt black with gold trim. My now go to work pen. Looks and writes great.
