Montblanc has launched two high-end limited edition bejewelled pens at the Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition (DJWE), which is currently under way in Doha, Qatar.
The limited edition Montblanc Boheme Skeleton Papillon and Etoile Mystérieuse writing instruments are the latest additions to the collection of jewelled writing instruments handcrafted by the German brand.
The Boheme Skeleton Papillon fountain pen is a one-of-a-kind artisan piece crafted in solid red and white gold, and adorned with 1,402 brilliant cut diamonds totalling 7.21 carats and 37 flawless sapphires. Fragile butterflies and Keatsian plant tendrils delicately envelop the solid gold skeleton barrel and cap, culminating in a beautiful bloom. The 18-karat gold nib with platinum inlay is finely engraved with the iconic Montblanc emblem, as well as the significant 4810 numeral - a reference to the 4,810 metre height of Europe’s highest mountain, Mont Blanc, and Montblanc’s symbol of excellence.
The Etoile Mystérieuse fountain pen continues the Maison’s heritage of exceptional craftsmanship in writing instruments. The elegant sterling silver writing instrument in black precious lacquer and crafted into a simple, yet elegant, curved silhouette includes 60 brilliant diamonds cascading down the barrel. A further 43 diamonds adorn the silver plated clip, while the signature Montblanc diamond floating in a transparent dome offers a crowning feature.
Eric Vergnes, President of Montblanc Middle East, India and Africa commented: “The Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition provides the perfect platform for Montblanc to showcase the exceptional craftsmanship, quality and design of our most exclusive pieces. We are particularly delighted that our collectors in Qatar will be among the first to appreciate the beauty and intricacies of the limited edition Boheme Skeleton Papillon and Etoile Mystérieuse writing instruments.”
Montblanc is at the Ali Bin Ali exhibition stand at the DWJE, which is being held at the new Doha Exhibition and Convention Center in West Bay.
The event runs until February 27 from noon to 10 pm.
