Product Description

MONTBLANC 2008 PATRON OF ARTS 4810 FRANCOIS I FOUNTAIN PEN

For 2008, Montblanc pays tribute to Francois I, King of France (1515), one of the greatest Patrons of the Arts. The passion of François I for painting, architecture and artistic writing is expressed in the carefully chosen design of the Montblanc Patron of Art Edition bearing his name. The gilt pen fittings shine in royal elegance and are decorated with courtly Renaissance ornaments. Another majestic touch is the three-color combination of the valuable materials: gold-plated fittings, black precious lacquer on the cap and a genuine semi-precious tiger-eye gemstone barrel. During his life, François I wore this fascinating gem as an amulet to protect himself against dangers and the powers of evil. The fine engraving on the handmade 18K gold nib honors the great king and art patron: it shows three heraldic lilies, the insignia of the French royal house, which also adorned the royal crown of lilies. The ornamental work on the rings and clip are patterns from the Renaissance – as Francois I was known as the "Renaissance King". The uniqueness of each pen is guaranteed by an engraved edition number, limited to only 4,810 pieces. Fountain pen is bottle fill only.

Email for Price

Montblanc’s 2007 Writers Collection limited edition series honors the famous American novelist, poet and screenwriter, William Faulkner (1897-1962). Regarded as one of the most influential writers of the 20th century, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1949. Faulkner donated a portion of his Nobel winnings to establish a fund to support aspiring writers which resulted in the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction. Raised in Mississippi, many of his short stories and novels took place in the region, generating comparisons to Mark Twain and Tennessee Williams. His important works include The Sound and the Fury (1929), As I Lay Dying (1930), and The Unvanquished (1938). The Faulkner fountain pen is a medium-sized piston-filler crafted in pearlized brown resin with engraved, platinum-plated overlay, retro-style clip and fittings. The 18K gold nib is platinum plated and decorated with an engraved biplane, recalling the great author’s passion for flying. The series also includes a ballpoint pen and a collector’s three-piece set with fountain pen, ballpoint and 0.7mm pencil. Fountain pen is bottle fill only.
