Mont Blanc Lorenzo De Medici Fountain Pen


⭕ THIS PEN IS GUARANTEED TO BE 100% AUTHENTIC.
Mont Blanc created the Lorenzo de Medici fountain pen in 1992 in a wordwide Limited Edition of 4810. This is the first of Mont Blancs famed 4810 Limited Edition series: this particular pen is number xxxx, and comes with a Fine nib. The pen is Mint In Box, and has never been dipped nor inked. This pen will truly be the crowning glory of your pen collection, as it has been of mine!! The Patron of Art Edition Lorenzo de Medici pays tribute to an age in which handcrafts and art were inextricably linked with each other. The eight-sided barrel, made of 925 sterling silver and richly ornamented, is hand-engraved with Viennese engravings and signed by eight master craftsmen. This elaborately finished barrel and the delicately engraved Rhodium-plated 18-karat gold nib with its heart-shaped hole make the edition as much a beautiful piece of jewellery as an exquisite writing instrument. Medici was the name of a great ruling family of Florence. Lorenzo the Magnificent was the most famous Medici. He was the son of Pietro I Medici and grandson of Cosimo de Medici. He succeeded as head of the family upon the death of his father in 1469, and was an able, if autocratic, ruler, who made Florence the most powerful state in Italy and led it to its highest flowering. Many Renaissance artists worked at his court, including Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. Macchiavelli called Lorenzo Medici the greatest patron of literature and art that any prince has ever been.
