An acknowledged work of art, the original Parker Snake Pen was crafted by hand in Sterling silver. The snake figure with penetrating green eyes, is coiled around the black pen body. The Parker 1997 Limited Edition Snake Pen unites the most advanced technology with the skill of traditional silversmiths and pure esthetic appeal. Based on the original Parker Snake Pen that was introduced in 1906, the 1997 Parker Snake Pen has the same powerful mystique that is the breath of legends. To create such an extraordinary design, Parker looked to an ancient technique called “Lost Wax” casting, still practiced by highly skilled traditional silversmiths today. Lost Wax metal casting dates back in time beyond Egypt’s pyramids. More than a thousand years BC artisans of the Shang Dynasty in China created delicate filigree objects of bronze as sophisticated as any high precision casting of today. Surviving Aztec artifacts also reflect mastery of the same casting techniques. At the heart of the pen is a technically advanced, precision engineered, twin channel feed and collector system which ensures a control supply of ink to the nib, even at high altitudes. The 1997 Parker Limited Edition Snake Pen is a collector’s pen and a work of art that will delight and give a lifetime of writing pleasure.
