Description from the seller
At auction we present an icon of avant-garde design: the Montblanc StarWalker Metal & Rubber in its Rollerball version, a writing instrument that breaks with classical tradition to project itself into a decidedly futuristic aesthetic. This model is famous for its fascinating material contrast, where the matte black rubber body is wrapped by an intricate lattice structure in platinum-plated metal, diamond-cut with precision. The guilloché grid engraving not only gives the pen an architectural and technical appearance but also ensures a secure and comfortable tactile grip, making it the ideal instrument for those seeking a perfect balance between ergonomics and modern visual impact.
The most poetic and distinctive element of the StarWalker line lies in the cap, characterized by a transparent dome inside which the iconic Montblanc white star emblem seems to float, a detail that evokes space exploration and technological innovation. Being a Rollerball model, this pen offers an extremely smooth signing experience thanks to Montblanc's original liquid ink, combining the smoothness typical of a fountain pen with the versatility of a modern ballpoint.
Each metal component, from the clip to the cap rings, is finely platinum-plated to ensure a cool, professional shine that lasts over time.
Regarding the condition, the specimen is structurally intact and functional, though, as noted, it shows light surface oxidation on the metal components of the body. This phenomenon, common in models that pair rubber and metal, gives the object a patina of authenticity that does not diminish the writing quality or the solidity of the mechanisms in the slightest.
It is an excellent opportunity to acquire an iconic design piece that, with a little maintenance or simply by embracing its lived character, will continue to stand out for authority and elegance on every desk.
