Montblanc Meisterstück Around the World in 80 Days Limited Edition 811 Fountain Pen - SEALED

Die EditionMeisterstück Around the World in 80 DaysIt captures the fascination of Jules Verne's world-famous adventure story and reinterprets it in an extraordinary writing style. The fountain pen ofLimited Edition 811, crafted from fine 925 sterling silver and finished with textured lacquer, impressively showcases the legendary journey of Phileas Fogg and his faithful companion Passepartout.

The focus is on the final leg of the journey from Yokohama back to London, which takes the duo across North America. This passage is symbolically represented by a locomotive, integrated into the silver cap as a cartouche made of solid 18-karat gold. The design of the cap reflects the rising steam of the steam locomotive, while the body is adorned with a three-dimensional inlay reminiscent of technical pressure valves.

A special detail is the clip: a red-lacquered heart alludes to the emotional bond between Phileas Fogg and Princess Aouda. Additionally, the depicted card suits reflect Fogg's risky wager to circumnavigate the globe in just 80 days. The cap's crown features an engraved timeline of the journey – 36 days from Yokohama to London, 80 days for the entire circumnavigation.

The cone features a finely crafted safety chain motif depicting a dramatic scene from history: the moment Passepartout separates the train from the locomotive to rescue the passengers attacked by the Sioux. This masterpiece is completed by a handcrafted 18-karat gold nib, adorned with a 1.5-millimeter black spinel and an elaborate color chart design.
