Short description
Everything that should be a postcard of Switzerland: elegance and sophistication, exclusivity, yet warmth and openness, symbolizes, like no other resort, St. Moritz. It is wonderful that the influence St Moritz has on global awareness, since it first welcomed skiers nearly 150 years ago, has grown enough to become a film and literary destination for luxury getaways.
Montegrappa, the most respected writing instrument manufacturer in Italy, is pleased to announce that it has the honor of creating a series of pens honoring the Swiss resort – St Moritz, whose premiere coincides with 2010 St Moritz Arts Masters. These events are a mutual fitting representation: of the town itself and the aura of luxury surrounding the fountain pens and rollers.
As early as 1934, Alfred Hitchcock shot the opening scenes of the film “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 immortal song “Where Do You Go To My Lovely”. Just mentioning it exudes haute monde sophistication.
However, St Moritz offers much more than skiing, golf, and other recreational activities. Every year, the city hosts 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’s presentation will thus be an excellent form of promotion for Montegrappa and the famous town, showcasing its exclusivity. An artist can use this 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 fountain pens are made of celluloid – a costly material derived from cotton fiber combined with natural dyes and mother-of-pearl, then decorated with 18K gold and sterling silver. In this limited edition, 8 fountain pens have been produced.
The meticulous craftsmanship will ensure your comfort of use and satisfaction with such an original and luxurious product, as the limited collections by Montegrappa undoubtedly are.
