Description from the seller

We are presenting at auction a refined jewel of contemporary writing: the Montblanc Bohème Ballpoint Pen, presented in the sleek and elegant version featuring platinum-plated finishes and a captivating black gemstone. Characterized by its compact proportions and unmistakable curved silhouette, this writing instrument is the ideal choice for those seeking the manufacturing excellence of the renowned German maison in a practical, versatile format with a highly sophisticated and professional charm.

The barrel and cap of the pen are masterfully crafted from Montblanc's classic black precious resin, whose glossy surface offers an extremely pleasant tactile sensation and a deep visual intensity. Creating an elegant and icy color contrast are the luminous platinum-plated metal details. The design is dominated by the massive and characteristic central band, finely engraved with the "MONTBLANC BOHÈME" lettering, while the solid clip is enriched by the elegant setting of a splendid synthetic black gemstone, reminiscent of an onyx. This distinctive detail gives the object a formal rigor and an exclusive, luxurious aesthetic. The iconic white six-pointed star proudly sits atop the flat finial, a universal symbol of craftsmanship excellence.

The piece is configured as a Ballpoint Pen, operated by a fluid, soft, and extremely precise twist mechanism. The images showing the pen dismantled into its main components testify to the total integrity of the internal metal structure and the absolute precision of the threads, an undisputed synonym for the lasting build quality typical of the brand. The official hallmarks, regularly engraved on the trims, unconditionally certify the authenticity of the product.

The overall state of preservation of this elegant instrument is to be considered in excellent condition. The pen has clearly been kept and used with great respect: the precious resin is beautifully preserved, glossy, and completely free of cracks, while the mechanism works flawlessly and the black gemstone is perfectly intact. In the name of our customary and strict transparency, we point out the presence of some minor, physiological superficial scratches and faint signs of rubbing on the platinum-plated central band and clip. These are slight, natural signs of normal use that do not in any way compromise the solid structural integrity, the overall beauty, or the perfect daily usability of the item. In line with our policies, the lot is offered naked, ready to provide an excellent writing experience but without the original box and accompanying documents.
