Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this wonderful Montblanc Writers Edition Homage to Homer Fountain Pen, which comes with its Homer Montblanc presentation box (including outers) and stamped information booklet - confirming first purchase on 19th October 2018. The pen has been lightly used and is presented in fantastic condition (there are some small marks on the section, common on the Homer, and these are shown in the photos). Only 9800 were produced and this is number 4424.
Launched in 2018, as the yearly offering from the Montblanc Writers Edition, the Homer is one of the most striking and recognisable pens from the series. This tribute to the author of the epic poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey, is a wonderful creation.
Taking its design inspiration from the story of the Trojan horse, the overall shape is a nod to the horse itself, with the back and clip reflecting the spear of Achilles. The engravings found on the cone and rings use motifs found on the traditional Greek pottery, with the colour of the pen also reflecting the colour of the pottery of that time.
The pen is fitted with a #9 18k medium nib and it's a piston filler, so your choice here is bottled ink. The Homer is always particularly coveted due to the #9 nib, which on Writers Edition is only found on this, the Hemingway and Dumas.
The important details are as follows...
- Medium Nib
- Montblanc Presentation Box
- Fantastic Condition
With every pen that we sell we provide a card that includes the manufacturer, model, serial / limitation number and date it was purchased from us. We do this because our customers like to have documentation showing that it’s been purchased from a trusted seller.
