Montegrappa Limited Edition Calligraphy Fountain Pen

Description

There’s writing. After which There’s calligraphy. Calligraphy is to writing what marquetry is to carpentry. It’s the act of applying a second level to the communication which writing accomplishes, for a word at the page or manuscript has a selected that means. Calligraphy enhances the real letters which form a word by adding a visible element that both complements and reinforces the message. When written calligraphically, letters and words go beyond their basic forms and turn out to be precious items. Montegrappa turned to the Lebanese artist and designer, Katya Assouad Traboulsi. Traboulsi’s design for the Calligraphy pen features a chic arabesque medallion in silver as a cap best and a fantastic interplay of enamel arabesque patterns in mother-of-pearl white, red and green. The pen barrel is characterised by its Arabic calligraphy phrase, virtuously embossed on a silver or gold background. The phrase literally reads: “the pen transports culture”, and the symbolism of this phrase is that the pen has been the instrument of transmitting wisdom and culture via time and across generations. To be had as a fountain pen handiest, but with quite a lot of nibs including oblique and stub versions most popular by calligraphers, the Calligraphy writing instruments are made from bamboo black celluloid with sterling silver trim. The fountain pen is fitted with an 18K gold nib enhanced with a bicolour arabesque motif. Delivered in a hand-made picket case devised to offer protection to the pen, it also houses a hardback version of the special book, “Arabic Calligraphy: Worlds Made Precious”.
