Montblanc Writers Edition Homage to Jane Austen - Tribute to the Iconic British Author 130672
Few authors in literary history have had the ability to create dialogues and bring characters to life with the same elegance, irony, and wit as British author Jane Austen. Montblanc created the Writers Edition Homage to Jane Austen to celebrate one of the most famous authors in English literature. This edition revives the Regency era when noble country estates were the scene of grand parties organized to cultivate social relationships and forge matrimonial alliances.
The fluting of a classical column embellishes the elegant sandstone grey resin body, along with Jane Austen's signature. The contrasting grey-blue cap evokes the type of double-collared Regency coat typically worn by gentlemen like Mr. Darcy in "Pride and Prejudice". Gold-finish rings on the body and platinum-finish details add a final touch of style to the design.
The engraving of the Roman numerals XLIII on the cap ring refers to the chapter in the novel where Elizabeth Bennet first sees Mr. Darcy's estate. The title page of her novel "Sense and Sensibility", published in 1811, simply stated that the work was written "by a lady". This author's declaration adorns the top of the cap of the Writers Edition Homage to Jane Austen Limited Edition, along with the Montblanc emblem. The writing instrument's silhouette itself resembles a wax seal.
The clip is as unique as the cap. Shaped like a braided cord with a drawstring closure, it resembles a "reticule", a type of handbag used by women around 1800 to carry powder, a mirror, and the indispensable pocket handkerchief. The only known image of Jane Austen, showing her delicate features, is immortalized as a fine engraving on the hand-crafted Au 750 solid gold rhodium-coated nib.
