## Description

Elevate your writing with the Parker Sonnet fountain pen. Crafted with a black lacquer barrel and cap, this pen offers exceptional writing comfort and precision.

Review: The pen makes me want to pick it up and write... - I wasn’t expecting to be quite this taken with a pen, but the Parker Sonnet has turned out to be absolutely perfect for me. I chose the fine nib this time — all my previous fountain pens have had medium nibs, and I’d never quite been satisfied. Because I keep a daily journal and need to write small, I decided to experiment. I’m glad I did. The fine nib on this pen is superb. The ink flows beautifully: smooth, even, and effortless. It’s as fluid as a good rollerball, but with that familiar fountain-pen softness and flexibility that makes writing feel almost expressive. In many ways, this is the best fountain pen I’ve ever used. I went for the silver version with gold trim, mainly because it was on a pre–Black Friday offer. The saving was substantial, but the quality has exceeded anything I expected at the price. Every now and then you buy something that’s such a pleasure to use that it actually makes you want to sit down and write. This is one of those things. Each morning, before I start my quiet time — journalling, reading, walking — I genuinely look forward to putting pen to paper. That’s not an exaggeration; it’s simply the joy of finding a tool that feels just right. Of course, no pen will suit everyone. But this one suits me perfectly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the parker sonnet blue lacquer have a solid gld nib? The picture shows the a steel nib (the grip is black) but the description says solid gold**
A: Parkers under £100 will almost certainly have a gold plated steel nib  Solid  18k gold nibs should be described as that - read the description fully and carefully: if it says gold trim, it invariably means gold plated nib and metalwork.

**Q: Can I have this with an italic or stub min?**
A: If you search for the nib exchange program on Parker's website it details which nibs are available for each pen. I used it to exchange my medium nib for an extra fine.

**Q: Does the matte black laquer have a solid gold nib or stainless steel? The price seems to indicate it being steel but the description says gold**
A: The matte black Sonnet fountain pen has a gold plated stainless steel nib. This means that it will write like a pen with a steel nib, and not like a pen with a gold nib, as the gold plate is purely decorative. I hope my explanation helps you decide.

**Q: Is this pen suitable for left handed writers?**
A: It absolutely is, and I can assert this as a left handed person myself! :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A lovely pen, no need for anything more expensive.
*by S***T on 18 March 2025*

Bought for my wife’s work, as writing with a decent fountain pen makes it so easy. And this pen does precisely this. Her opinion is that the pen flows beautifully, smoothly, allowing for a considerable lack of writing hardship, making her day all the better. She loves it, well please with the style and weight. Looks gorgeous. I watched her writing and, it looks effortless and the letters are formed elegantly.
