Montblanc Pens Auction

A0000006292

Auctioning a magnificent piece for high-end collecting: the Montblanc Writers Edition pen dedicated to the brilliant French philosopher and writer Voltaire, launched on the market in 1995. This exclusive edition is strictly limited to 13,000 pens worldwide.

The body and cap are crafted in the unmistakable black precious resin of German manufacture, aesthetic nod to the dark ink Voltaire used for his prolific work. The luxury contrast is provided by its spectacular ornamental details forged in vermeil (solid 925 sterling silver with a sumptuous 18-karat gold plating). Notable are the elaborate classic engravings of the crown and rings, as well as the unmistakable Voltaire signature finely engraved in gold tone on the cap. The pinnacle is crowned by Montblanc's traditional white star.

The writing instrument operates with a smooth, reliable and silent continuous-rotation mechanism to extend the nib.

A subasta una magnífica pieza de alta colección: el bolígrafo Montblanc Edición de Escritores (Writers Edition) dedicado al genial filósofo y literato francés Voltaire, lanzado al mercado en el año 1995. Esta exclusiva edición se encuentra estrictamente limitada a 13.000 bolígrafos a nivel mundial.

El cuerpo y el capuchón están elaborados en la inconfundible resina preciosa negra de la manufactura alemana, un guiño estético a la tinta oscura que Voltaire utilizó para su prolífica obra. El contraste de lujo lo aportan sus espectaculares detalles ornamentales forjados en vermeil (plata de ley 925 maciza con un suntuoso baño de oro de 18 quilates). Destacan los elaborados grabados clásicos de la corona y los anillos, así como la inconfundible firma de Voltaire finamente grabada en tono dorado sobre el capuchón. La cúspide está rematada por la tradicional estrella blanca de Montblanc.

El instrumento de escritura funciona mediante un suave, fiable y silencioso mecanismo de giro continuo para extraer la punta.
