Description from the seller
In this auction we present a masterpiece of sculptural design that pays homage to the legendary "Lili Marleen": the Montblanc Muses Marlene Dietrich Special Edition 2007 ballpoint pen. This collection celebrates the female icons who reshaped the style of the 20th century and Dietrich, with her androgynous magnetism and revolutionary elegance, is perfectly evoked in this writing instrument with its unmistakable silhouette, crafted for those who desire an object of exceedingly rare prestige and strong personality.
The pen's design is a refined architecture of historical quotes and noble materials. The hourglass silhouette, widening and narrowing in harmonious fashion, recalls the actress's famous men's suits, culminating in a platinum-plated tip with a perfectly circular, symmetrically aligned line, a distinctive detail of the original Montblanc project. The clip shaped like a tie, symbol of the diva's "gender-fluid" style, is adorned with a synthetic blue sapphire inlaid, while the cap crown hosts the iconic maison star made from precious iridescent mother-of-pearl. On the barrel, the autograph signature "Dietrich" engraved in platinum seals the authenticity of this special edition.
The piece is presented in excellent conservative condition. The premium black resin has preserved its original mirrored brilliance and the platinum finishes are vivid and free of oxidation. The particular circular formation at the base of the barrel, an integral part of the Muses Edition's architectural design, is intact and harmonious, confirming the care with which the instrument has been preserved. The turning mechanism is fluid and precise, offering the elite writing experience typical of the Hamburg manufactory.
This 2007 Marlene Dietrich is not just a pen, but a collectible investment in one of the most successful designs of the Muses series. A object that communicates authority, culture and a love for classic cinema, perfect for enriching a private collection or for use as a signature by the author in the most meaningful moments.
