Montblanc Patron of Art Homage to Moctezuma I Limited Edition 4810 Fountain Pen

Crowned in 1440, Moctezuma I led the Aztec empire to its peak. During his reign, he shaped the image we know today, that of an empire of extreme cultural and mythological wealth. His capital, Tenochtitlan, present-day Mexico City, became flourishing. Adorned with champagne-colored attributes, the Montblanc Patron of Art Homage to Moctezuma I Limited Edition 4810 writing instrument is dedicated to this great sovereign who ruled over one of the most extraordinary civilizations in history. The entirety of its design evokes the atlatl used by the Aztecs to propel their spears over great distances.

The cone shape, with a finely hammered finish, echoes an Aztec sacrificial knife equipped with an obsidian blade. The lacquer reflects the colors of the royal mantle, petrol blue and carmine red. The cap features two hieroglyphs symbolizing the reign of Moctezuma I. The handmade 18 K gold nib is decorated with fine engraving inspired by the Aztec glyph of the city of Tenochtitlan: a three-branched cactus complemented by a royal diadem and two scrolls.
