Painting Ballpoint Pen SILVER St.Moritz Summer Golf

St Moritz, the Swiss resort, has been honored with a series of limited-edition pens by the renowned writing instruments manufacturer Montegrappa. The launch coincides with the 2010 St Moritz Arts Masters. These events are a mutual fitting representation: of the town itself and the luxury aura surrounding fountain pens and rollers.

St. Moritz is unlike any other resort, symbolizing everything that should be on a Swiss postcard: elegance and sophistication, exclusivity, yet warmth and openness. 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.

As early as 1934, Alfred Hitchcock filmed the opening scenes of the movie “The Man Who Knew Too Much” in this city. It was also a beautiful backdrop for the film, exactly 30 years later, in the James Bond series: “Goldfinger,” as well as for “For Your Eyes Only” in 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.” Mentioning it alone conveys haute monde sophistication.

However, St Moritz offers much more than skiing, golf, and other recreational activities. Every year, the city hosts art exhibitions, renowned shows, seminars, walks, and other attractions. The 2010 St Moritz Arts Masters is an event taking place for the third time, from August 27 to September 5. A gathering of artists, collectors, experts, and critics – a rare opportunity to publicly enjoy art in all its aspects.

This event will thus serve as an excellent promotional platform for Montegrappa and the famous town, showcasing their exclusivity. An artist can use the tool – a pen – to present a work of art enhanced with a visual representation of St Moritz. To decorate the bodies, Montegrappa’s designer selected 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 from celluloid – an expensive material derived from cotton fiber combined with natural dyes and mother-of-pearl, then decorated with sterling silver. In this limited edition, 300 ballpoint pens made from red-colored celluloid and sterling silver have been produced.

Gifts are an important element for business meetings and for building a well-managed company.
