Montblanc – Writers Edition Brothers Grimm

Description

“Once upon a time …” The Montblanc Writers Edition Homage to Brothers Grimm is dedicated to Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm and celebrates their work of collecting and reworking German and European folk tales, including some of the most famous such as “Snow White “,” Cinderella “and” Sleeping Beauty “. The overall silhouette of the writing instrument takes the shape of an ancient mountain staff and the black color evokes the darkness of the forests, the usual setting in the popular fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm. In addition, the wave pattern on the body and hood is inspired by Rapunzel’s hair and also evokes the shape of the roots, referring to the fact that the Brothers Grimm saw their linguistic work as a “root research”. The cap is crowned with the Montblanc emblem in precious resin. When rotated, the platinum-coated clip, inspired by a knotty piece of wood, surprisingly reveals the silhouette of the Brothers Grimm’s profile. To pay homage to the magic of storytelling, the Au 750 rhodium-coated solid gold nib bears the design of the flames of a hearth, a place around which popular fairy tales were often told and handed down.
