Original ceramic box in the shape of a Parker pen, made by The Silver Crane Company, founded in the United Kingdom. The company became known for creating popular items in collaboration with other companies, such as Gordon's, Shell Car, Kiwi, or with Parker Pen, as in this case. In 1984, the company created innovative ceramic pieces inspired by the classic design of the licensed Parker Pen fountain pens and inkwells. The most famous piece from this collaboration is a glossy black glazed ceramic pen case with gold accents and Parker's signature arrow-shaped clip, molded in the giant shape of a fountain pen. The interior is divided into two compartments: one for the pen and a smaller one intended for an inkwell, though it can also be used as a decorative object, a catch-all, or for other purposes. It's a piece that embodies the spirit of postmodernism and 1980s pop culture. It bears a stamp on the base. This piece has an attribution mark,
