Montegrappa Aphrodite Limited edition fountain pen

2.000,00

In 1997 Montegrappa celebrated the myth of Aphrodite by creating a fountain pen that bears her name.
The love that united Aphrodite and Adonis lives in the precious silver overlay. The details stemming from a great manual dexterity, refine the different textures of the bark, leaves and skin.
The representation of the treasures of the sea which, according to legend, the most beautiful of all the goddesses were born are represented by the precious “mother-of-pearl” inclusions and two beads, one at the end of the clip, the other at the feet of the female sculpture

Montegrappa Aphrodite Limited Edition Fountain Pen

The unique beauty of the Aphrodite fountain pen by Montegrappa is evident on first glance. Its bold size, the sculptural dynamism of its lavish, high relief overlay, the juxtaposition of contrasting materials (gleaming, matte, and lustrous), and of contrasting forms (rigidly architectural and fluidly organic) – all work together to spark an immediate fascination in the beholder, and all are classic MONTEGRAPPA.

On closer inspection, one cannot help but marvel at the intricacy of detail – the various textures of bark, leaves and skin, the movement of water, the tangle of flowing hair.

The figures of the Goddess herself, and of her beloved hunter, Adonis, seem to be simultaneously contained by, and also transgressing, their alcove niches, so that they manage to evoke not only their status as mythological figures of classical art and statuary, but also the fleshly human realities they represent.
