Montegrappa Roma Aeterna Limited Edition

Montegrappa dedicates this Limited Edition of the Viaggio Collection to its own country, celebrating the splendours of the city which for centuries performed the role of capital of the world. A true hymn of praise to the incomparable glory of Rome and its unequalled beauty, the Roma Aeterna pen draws the inspiration for its remarkable decoration from two places which with the great strength of symbolic imagery speak to people today of the grandeur of Ancient Rome: the Roman Forum, the pulsating centre of the city’s political and military power, and the city of Pompeii, the extraordinarily vivid and expressive evidence of the daily life of the great patrician families.

Roma Aeterna Limited Edition is realised with the exclusive technique of low-relief engraving. The decorations on the cap are inspired by some of the main monuments of the excavations of Pompeii: a detail of the mosaic pavement in the so-called Casa degli Amorini Dorati and a pattern which appears in the plasterwork of the vestibule of the Baths of Stabia. The Greek key pattern reproduced both on the cap and the barrel of the pen is taken from a magnificent fresco in the celebrated Villa dei Misteri, also at Pompeii. On the barrel some of the main monuments of the Roman Forum are depicted. This is an archaeological area which is among the most impressive in the world and still today it is an eloquent symbol of the power and splendour of the city.

Roma Aeterna Limited Edition consists of a total of 1,229 pieces, corresponding to the number of years of the history of Rome, from its foundation in 753 b.c. to the fall of the Empire in a.d. 476, and is proposed in sterling silver fountain pen and rollerball pen, 18K yellow gold fountain pen and rollerball pen and a precious version in 18K yellow gold and diamonds available both in fountain and rollerball pen. Finishing parts are made of precious resin, in an exclusive Pompeii red colour.

Remarks:

Lamy 2000 Limited Edition 2000 Fountain Pen

When the first LAMY 2000 made its appearance, in 1996, it was a risky business, and for many it was a provocation: a fountain pen with only one aim, to be a comtemporary tool for wiring. No decorative elements. Made from modern materials. An honest writing intrument aimed purely at practival use.

The LAMY 2000 made a radical break with the supposition that writing instruments should look the same as they always had. It attempts to avoid making any pretentious claims to irs users, either by borrowing from some previous member of the world of shapes, or through materials that were intended to give an impression of particular high value.

Function alone determined the shape of the LAMY 2000 fountian pen and ballpoint pen. They were among the first writing instruments of the modern shcool. This was a modernity that began to make its presence felt generally, among other consumer goods, in the Sixties, and which was influenced by the Bauhaus movement and the "Ulm School".

The LAMY 2000 writing instruments range first saw the light of day in 1966, and has been sold unchanged since then. For the Year 2000, a special edition of the fountain pen and ballpoint pen models has been commissioned, with numbers limited worldwide, 5000 for fountain pen and 10,000 for ballpoint pens.
