Description
The Italian company specializing in the production of the most elegant and desirable writing instruments Montegrappa has been asked for the second time to create a pen to honor the greatest breakthrough event in golf: the creation of the St Andrews golf course. Based on its experience as a pioneer among producers of exclusive writing instruments, Montegrappa is proud to offer the perfect pen to commemorate "Home Of Golf" – the headquarters of golf, the St Andrews golf courses.
In 2010, the 150th anniversary of "The Open Championship" was celebrated at the oldest golf course in the world – "The Old Course" in St Andrews. This inspired the creation of a new range of writing instruments produced by Montegrappa, showcasing the quality, history, and beauty associated with the golf courses in St. Andrews.
Izzy Cameron, Brand Development Manager at St Andrews Links, said: "We are very pleased to collaborate with a company that represents history and heritage. This partnership extends our world of the renowned brand into a realm where pen owners can appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of Montegrappa products, just as those playing on our courses appreciate their golf legacy spanning over 600 years."
This collection features green celluloid with a detailed cabochon golf ball on the cap and the St Andrews golf course logo on the body, which, according to Montegrappa, pays tribute to six centuries of golf played on the St Andrews courses, dating back to around 1400 AD. During the 19th century, golf evolved from factory workers’ pastime to a way of life for the local community. Golf remains a cultural and economic cornerstone of St Andrews to this day.
In the 2012 edition, Montegrappa offers a fountain pen and a ballpoint pen in versions made from black resin and sterling silver, or in celluloid in bamboo black and 18K rose gold. The silver instruments will be produced in a limited edition of 600 pieces each; this number signifies the years of golf played in St Andrews. Additionally, 7 fountain pens and 7 ballpoint pens made from gold have been issued to represent the number of golf courses there.
The last, special, hand-engraved edition called "18th Hole" completes the collection with 18 fountain pens and 18 ballpoint pens crafted from 18K rose gold and green celluloid. The pattern on the body depicts a golfer in period attire preparing to strike. The image was skillfully recreated from an original photograph by engraver Mario Rossetti. The ring surrounding the cap is decorated with golf images.
Exclusive pens are perfect gifts for business partners and company promotion.
