Montblanc – Muses: Maria Callas

The Montblanc Maria Callas Special Edition Ruby-Coloured is dedicated to one of the most charismatic sopranos of the 20th century and a highly regarded style icon. With her talent, passion, and personality, she embodied a precise ideal of an opera diva. In some of the greatest opera houses, from La Scala in Milan to the Paris Opera to the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, she was known as “La Divina.” This edition celebrates her life in the spotlight as an opera diva, with the precious resin cap and barrel bathed in a rich ruby ​​hue, while the slender, elegant silhouette reflects the graceful beauty of Maria Callas. The platinum-coated clip is adorned with a synthetic stone, whose vibrant ruby ​​color is inspired by her deep love of opulent ruby ​​jewelry. The delicate petal shape pays homage to a new rose named after Maria Callas in 1965, in honor of her fervent passion for these flowers. A costume detail from Bellini’s “Norma,” one of her most iconic bel canto roles, is reflected in the laurel leaf motif that envelops the edition’s platinum-finished cone, along with the embossed signature of the renowned soprano.
