Where are these refills made. I get the distinct impression those make in the UK and France write better than those made in the US

They say "France". I can't comment if they write better or not than those from the US. But they do write very well. They also leak if run through the clothes washer--which I mistakenly did. But that's my own fault, not the ink pen.

My refills say "made in France." I don't think there are any refills made in the US anymore.

They are made in France. These refills write very well and I'm surely happy with the purchase price and quality.

They do come from overseas, I believe England or France, (sorry don't remember), but they write great. I am still using the first refill from 8 months ago. Nice and smooth when writing or printing.

I'm pretty sure the Parker refills are made in France (perhaps they were made in the UK formerly), but never in the US. Some batches have a high failure rate, so I always break each blister pack open and test the refill.Anthracite? Hard coal?

You are right! I looked for these for years until I found them. I am very happy with them.

The refills are made in France and exhibit superb writing characteristics. Very smooth and flowing with no skips or blobs.

Not sure where they are made ( not printed on the and I threw away the box) but I think France. You may want to look up the ISI company. They are very high quality! And after may dish Washings the print is still perfect. I would buy again.

I have no idea where these are made from. Amazon should be able to answer this.

The ones I just got was made in USA. The other ones from other countries came in dried out and unusable.

I believe that they are made in China. The packaging does not specify. However, the individual parts have English and Chinese characters on them. For me it does not matter as I have used these for a few years now with no issues.

This is an issue for me too. can we get the manufacurer or distributor to answer this question: where are they made?

So much misinformation out there. They are NOT made in France. That's just where the company is from (just like there are Hondas made in Japan, Mexico and the United States).The box clearly states they are made in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). They were well packaged and none were damaged for me. It's unclear if they are made of tempered glass or just regular soda glass.If you want bowls made in France, Duralex are actually made in France, and are made of tempered glass, to boot. They are roughly 2x more expensive than these Luminarcs, though.

I believe these are made in France but I am not sure. I ordered them for my neice or I would check the box for you just to be sure. I can tell you that these are far from horrendous, they are wonderful!'

They used to be made in the US of A, but now I think they are made abroad. I cannot confirm.

Gregory M, I believe they are still made in England. I have bought two over the last 7 years, one for myself and one as a house gift for my mum as her toaster died during a visit. Both work incredibly well, I have had no issues with either. Sincerely, Michael W.

I imagine that Parker make refills, but the refills made by Cross fit perfectly and they are really good quality, although somewhat expensive. The Cross refills are readily available in South Africa where I live.

They are made in China, now. The original ones have a RED mark on the bottom. At leastthat has been my experience.

I believe they're made in England, at least that is where it was shipped from.

10 years ago they were made in the USA. Today they are made in China. That is the difference in quality. I am having the same issue.

I no longer have the dispenser packaging, but the refill clips pack says the company is from the UK.

I am using them in another container than the original package. I don't know where they were made.
