With timeless
elegance and innovative functionality, the Montblanc Meisterstück has
been synonymous with the finest craftsmanship for over 90 years. The
latest
addition to the Masters for Meisterstück collection - a collection that
conveys the excellence of Montblanc’s most iconic writing instrument
through the traditions of master craftsmen of different metiers -
honours the supreme leather craftsmanship of Florence.
An elegant collection of writing instruments and a matching leather
accessory created in collaboration with outstanding artisans captures
the rich history, artistic traditions and incomparable style of the
Tuscan city, once the centre of the Italian Renaissance.
Many delicate
design details pay homage to the landmarks of the city of Florence, from
the stylised silhouette of the famous cathedral Santa Maria del Fiore
embossed
onto the leather of the cap to the intricate engraving of the
celebrated Ponte Vecchio arch bridge with its characteristic arches
etched on the platinum-plated cone. The rhodium-plated nib – the heart
and soul of every Montblanc fountain pen – is carefully
crafted and polished by hand out of Au750 gold. Beneath Montblanc’s
signature 4810 engraving, the nib is adorned with the distinctive
outline of the cupola of the cathedral Santa Maria del Fiore. Crowning
the writing instrument, the Montblanc emblem, symbol
of the pinnacle of European is made of precious mother-of-pearl. A
precious writing instrument inspired by the skilled artisans of Florence
requires an equally special pen pouch to protect it. Crafted from the
same lustrous brown colour as the cap and barrel
of the writing instruments, the pen pouch perfectly matches both the
fountain pen and the rollerball of the Masters for Meisterstück Firenze
collection. The pen pouch features the Montblanc emblem on the front and
the most famous structure in Florence – the
distinctive cupola of the cathedral Santa Maria del Fiore – embossed on
the top.
Presented in a decorative wooden gift box, the writing instruments from the Masters for Meisterstück Firenze collection are unique in the world of fine writing with their hand-stitched seams and contrasting platinum-plated fittings with their elaborate engravings. These handcrafted masterpieces honour the painstaking workmanship and stylish flair that put Florence leather artisanship, past and present, in a league of its own. They are available from October 2015 in Montblanc boutiques worldwide. For further information, visit www.montblanc.com
