Very nice pen rather feminine with its pink color very pale. The design is classic but tasteful with its guilloche streaks that give it a modern air anyway. The setting parker is good if one wants to make a gift. The pen feels good in the hand, does not bleed, writing (blue ink) is nice and soft, Parker refills are readily available when ordering from Amazon (pity there is not a refill supplied with the pen ball) Once tried it and adopt it! Affordable price for a quality pen.
