I have this box. I do not know whether it is original and how old it is. Looks 10-20 years. Has anyone seen similar?

Yes it is a Parker original. It was sold as an accessory item for the modern Parker Duofold pens, probably of the 1980-2000 era. This item included an ink bottle.

Very nice Parker box! Interestngly, I have an almost identifcal box made by Levenger and sold through their catalog many years ago--identical in every detail except the Levenger box has a more standard type of hinge. I received it as a gift and it has the name Levenger imprinted into the bottom. I'll bet Levenger modeled their design on that Parker box. It's a very handy, practical and attractive pen holder. Enjoy!.

Thanks for the answers. I bought the box from a local auction for about $ 6 with postage included. I have a lot Parker Duofold pen's and this box is a good addition to them. I have to clean it up and I find this ink - the parker penman ink bottle. :happyberet:

I have had this from new and it is immaculate condition. I also have 5 bottles of penman ink four still in their original boxes and one empty blue sapphire bottle.

I know this is an old thread but I couldn't find anywhere else that mentions wooden Parker pen boxes. Thought I'll add a photo of mine here. I'm trying to date mine, too. This came with a set of flighter mechanical pencils.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
