{"product_id":"parker-sonnet-fountain-pen-black-lacquer-gt","title":"Parker Sonnet Fountain Pen - Black Lacquer GT","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Parker Sonnet Fountain Pen - Black Lacquer GT presents one of Parker's most recognizable modern designs in its most traditional color pairing. Deep black lacquer is framed by gold-plated trim, while the broad arrow clip and balanced cigar-shaped profile give the pen a composed, formal presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Sonnet Collection\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduced in 1994, the Sonnet was designed by Geoff Hollington as Parker's modern classic. Its proportions were carefully developed to feel familiar without reproducing an earlier model, allowing the collection to support everything from simple lacquer finishes to engraved metal and precious-metal editions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack Lacquer GT became a central Sonnet finish because it places the focus on the silhouette and trim. The lacquer develops greater visual depth than molded resin, while the gold-plated appointments reinforce Parker's traditional black-and-gold identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWriting Experience\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis example is fitted with an 18k gold Medium nib. Parker Sonnet nibs are designed for controlled everyday writing, and the Medium width provides enough ink flow to show shading while remaining practical for correspondence, notes, and journaling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cartridge-converter filling system accepts Parker cartridges or bottled fountain pen ink through a compatible converter. The cap closes securely, and the gently tapered section supports a natural writing grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCollector Perspective\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEarlier French-made Sonnet fountain pens with 18k gold nibs occupy an appealing place in Parker collecting. They preserve the original material hierarchy of the collection while remaining practical enough for regular use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Fountain Pen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollection: Parker Sonnet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Black Lacquer GT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Black lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrim: Gold-plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNib Material: 18k gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNib Size: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilling System: Cartridge Converter\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":"Medium","offer_id":54452865073427,"sku":"PK-SON-BG-FP","price":399.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2083\/6627\/files\/Parker-Sonnet-Fountain-Pen-Black-Lacquer-GT-uncapped-leaning.jpg?v=1784645152","url":"https:\/\/www.truphaeinc.com\/products\/parker-sonnet-fountain-pen-black-lacquer-gt","provider":"Truphae","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
