Short description
Since St. Moritz welcomed skiers nearly 150 years ago, it has grown to become a film and literary destination for luxury getaways. It is wonderful how much influence St. Moritz has on global awareness. Montegrappa, the most respected writing instrument manufacturer in Italy, is pleased to announce the creation of a series of pens honoring the Swiss resort – St. Moritz, with the premiere coinciding with the 2010 St. Moritz Arts Masters. These events are a mutual fitting representation: of the town itself and the aura of luxury surrounding fountain pens and rollers.
Everything that should be a postcard of Switzerland: elegance and sophistication, exclusivity, yet warmth and openness, symbolizes, like no other resort, St. Moritz.
As early as 1934, Alfred Hitchcock filmed the opening scenes of “The Man Who Knew Too Much” in this city. It was also a beautiful backdrop for a film made exactly 30 years later in the James Bond series: “Goldfinger” and for “For Your Eyes Only” from 1981. The most romantic musician, Peter Sarstedt, mentioned St. Moritz among the elite places in his timeless song “Where Do You Go To My Lovely.” Mentioning it alone exudes haute monde sophistication.
However, St. Moritz offers much more than skiing, golf, and other recreational activities. Every year, the city welcomes art, famous exhibitions, seminars, walks, and other attractions. The 2010 St. Moritz Arts Masters is an event held for the third time, taking place from August 27 to September 5. A gathering of artists and collectors, experts and critics – a rare opportunity to publicly enjoy art in all its aspects.
This event will therefore serve as an excellent promotional platform for Montegrappa and the famous town to showcase their luxury. An artist can use the tool – a pen – to showcase a work of art adorned with a visual representation of St. Moritz. To decorate the bodies, Montegrappa’s designer chose three historic posters to illustrate the wide range of attractions in St. Moritz. Each image is hand-painted by artist Lorena Straffi. The ballpoint pens are made of cellulose – a costly material derived from cotton fiber combined with natural dyes and mother-of-pearl – and are decorated with 18K gold and sterling silver. In this limited edition, 8 ballpoint pens have been produced.
The meticulous craftsmanship will ensure your comfort of use and satisfaction with such an original and luxurious gift, as the limited collections of Montegrappa undoubtedly are.
