    Sorry, I'm no help regarding origin, but that razor has, to me, "the look" ---looks like a top-quality piece of steel. There were just so many cutlery businesses, so many jobbers, so much "out-sourcing" that sometimes locating an original manufacturer is impossible. Smarter people with better reference materials may jump in here with a real answer, but that thing looks like a sweet piece to hone and use...just plain fun to hone.

    Sounds italian to me. Any way of getting closeups of the markings on the tang? They'd be a big help for identifying any makers marks or other names/locations.

    People here and my local barber who is major collector can't seem to find any info on it. Pretty interesting to say the least

    To me this razor looks like its from Germany, Solingen. That said i didnt find any information on Parcella but there is a department store in Germany thats called Peek & Cloppenburg and is refered to as P & C often. The store been around since 1907, its a very long shot but who knows!
    Nevertheless it is a nice looking tang covered razor Enjoy!
