Description
Montegrappa, one of the most renowned manufacturers of writing instruments for over 100 years, has been asked for the second time to create a pen to honor the most significant breakthrough in golf: the creation of the St Andrews golf course. Based on its experience as a pioneer among luxury writing instrument producers, Montegrappa is proud to offer the perfect pen to commemorate "Home Of Golf" – the headquarters of golf, the St Andrews golf course.
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 famous brand into a realm where pen owners can appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of Montegrappa products, just as those who play on our courses appreciate their golf legacy spanning over 600 years."
This collection features green celluloid with a highlighted cabochon golf ball on the cap and the St Andrews golf courses logo on the body, which, according to Montegrappa, pays tribute to six centuries of golf played at St Andrews, dating back to around 1400 AD. During the 19th century, golf evolved from factory workers' pastime into 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 fountain pens and ballpoint pens in versions made of black resin and sterling silver or in versions with bamboo-black colored celluloid and 18K rose gold. The silver writing instruments will be produced in a limited quantity of 600 pieces each; this number represents the years of golf played at St Andrews. The gold writing instruments are limited to only 7 fountain pens and 7 ballpoint pens, representing the number of golf courses there.
The final, special, hand-engraved edition called "18th Hole" completes the collection with 18 fountain pens and 18 ballpoint pens made of 18K rose gold and green celluloid. The pattern on the body depicts a golfer in period attire preparing to strike. The image has been skillfully recreated from an original photograph by engraver Mario Rossetti. The ring surrounding the cap is decorated with golf images.
Exclusive pens make excellent gifts for clients and promotional items for companies. An elegant fountain pen is undoubtedly an interesting and valuable idea for corporate gifts.
