Montblanc Writers Edition Fountain Pen Tribute to Robert Louis Stevenson Limited Edition

The Montblanc Writers Edition collection is a celebration of the immense literary talent of Robert Louis Stevenson, a Scottish writer whose works have captivated and inspired generations of readers. Stevenson, born in 1850 in Edinburgh, was a man who constantly sought freedom and escape in different worlds. His work, which includes essays, travel narratives, and adventure novels, is populated with unforgettable characters that continue to fascinate readers around the world.

The Montblanc Writers Edition Tribute to Robert Louis Stevenson honors this writer with a prolific imagination. The novel Treasure Island inspired many details of this edition. Stevenson, who was a celebrity in his lifetime, spent several years searching for a place conducive to his health and eventually settled in Samoa. Alarmed by the growing influence of Europeans and Americans in the South Pacific islands, his writing shifted from romantic and adventure fiction to a darker realism.

The writing instrument and the rings of the cone form a whole that evokes an extensible historical telescope. Their body made of precious black resin is adorned with engraved crosses, including a larger 'X' marking the location of the treasure on the map. Vertical lines recall the planks of the brig Hispaniola, while the cap of the Writers Edition writing instruments is embellished with a traditional ship's chest.

The top of the cap is crowned with the Montblanc emblem adorned with the pirate symbol of a skull in its center. Behind the platinum clip shaped like a mooring bollard, to which the rigging of a ship is generally attached, the lines converge to form a compass rose. In tribute to Robert Louis Stevenson’s passion for sailing and his settlement in the South Seas, the 18 K gold nib, rhodium-plated and handcrafted, features an engraving representing fine waves.

The pen has dimensions of 147 x 17.4 x 10 mm and weighs 57.5 g. It is a fountain pen, which means it uses liquid ink delivered by a nib. Its color is black, which adds to its elegant and sophisticated appearance.
