Reminiscent of Montblanc’s early beginnings, the Montblanc Heritage Collection takes its inspiration from the original technological impact of the Simplo Safety Filler, a product of the Simplo Filler Pen Company, the venture that set the foundation of what was to one day become the ultimate synonym of Writing Culture – Montblanc, a trademark registered in 1910.

With its filling mechanism, it set itself apart from the desk-dip pens most common at the time.

In the world of Montblanc, aesthetics in design have just as an important role as does technological innovation.

The Montblanc Heritage 1912 Limited Edition.

Smooth and modern, reveals a floating mother-of-pearl emblem in the cap top and three “slip on clips”, each honouring a design movement from that era. The “Art Deco Clip” in 925 Sterling Silver harks back to the Art Deco movement in design and architecture, the “Snake Clip” in German Silver, characterises the spirit of change that epitomized the era, while the “Triangle Clip” in 750 solid gold is a modern interpretation of the classic clip shape from the early 20th century.

The white tip on the cap was the forerunner of what would become the world famous white star emblem symbolising the snow covered top of the mountain Mont Blanc that has forever since symbolised Montblanc’s commitment to highest quality and finest European craftsmanship. The Montblanc Heritage Collection 1912 Limited Edition is reminiscent of an era where everything was possible, and advancement was a formidable driving force.

The Montblanc Heritage Collection 1912 Limited Edition writing instrument will be available in Montblanc boutiques worldwide from October 2012, at a price of £8,500.00 (including VAT).
