{"product_id":"parker-ellipse-ballpoint-pen-black-and-gold","title":"Parker Ellipse Ballpoint Pen - Black and Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Parker Ellipse Ballpoint Pen - Black and Gold reflects one of the brand's more sculptural late-twentieth-century designs. Its broad, rounded body, polished black finish, and prominent gold-plated appointments create a visual weight that separates the Ellipse from the slimmer Sonnet and Insignia collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Distinctive Parker Silhouette\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Ellipse was designed around a strongly curved profile, with a broad cap and barrel that narrow toward the writing end. The shape gives the pen a substantial presence and places greater emphasis on the relationship between body volume, clip, and trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack and gold is the most traditional interpretation of the design. The dark surface allows the gold-plated clip, center band, and writing cone to stand out clearly, reinforcing the formal character of the collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWriting Experience\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe twist-action ballpoint mechanism extends the writing point smoothly and accepts Parker-style refills. The generous body distributes weight across the hand, making the pen feel more substantial than many slim executive ballpoints.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCollector Perspective\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Ellipse is less commonly encountered than Parker's long-running Sonnet or Duofold lines. Its unusual proportions and short production life give it particular interest for collectors who appreciate designs that sit outside Parker's more familiar visual language.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Ballpoint Pen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollection: Parker Ellipse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Black and Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Polished black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrim: Gold-plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMechanism: Twist-action ballpoint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefill Type: Parker-style ballpoint refill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimary Color: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Parker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54452864975123,"sku":"PK-EL-BG-BP","price":249.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2083\/6627\/files\/Parker-Ellipse-Ballpoint-Pen-Black-and-Gold-leaning.jpg?v=1784645610","url":"https:\/\/www.truphaeinc.com\/products\/parker-ellipse-ballpoint-pen-black-and-gold","provider":"Truphae","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
