THE FOUNTAIN PEN MADE OF AMBER

All amber rings are individually processed, polished and combined with platinized rings on site.

There is a fascinating interplay between the two materials that is repeated in total between the platinum-plated cap and the amber barrel: here precious metal, there an “organic” jewelry stone, here permanent coolness, there warm colours, here technical clarity, there shimmering-glimmering aura.

Apart from this interplay, it is mainly the high-quality craftsmanship, the individual grain of the amber rings and their different colours that make every fountain pen a unique piece of personal value – and an ideal present for others or for oneself.

HIGH QUALITY PRESENTATION

The Pen of the Year 2004

The individually numbered writing implements are presented in an exclusive wooden case with an amber ‘eye’ and accompanied by a valuable brochure.

The certificate bears the personal signature of Boris Igdalov, assuring that the pen was produced in the St Petersburg amber workshop and for a limited period only.

EXTRAORDINARY INTO THE DETAILS

The 18-carat bicolour gold nib is ‘run in’ by hand and is available in widths M, B and F. The solid spring-loaded clip guarantees security when the pen is pocketed. A platinum-plated cap with amber inlay protects the knob of the plunger mechanism.

Limited to: 2.300 fountain pens

THE ART OF WORKING WITH AMBER

Amber with its various colours offers a vast range of creativity that has always inspired artists, artisans and architects to create amazing products.

The undisputed highlight is the legendary Amber Room. From 1701 to 1711, the Prussian King Friedrich I. ordered the most famous amber turners of that time to manufacture the Room’s valuable wall paneling. He almost ruined the state finances with this “most expensive wallpaper in the world”.

Later, his son and successor Friedrich Wilhelm I. gave Peter the Great the Amber Room as a present. In 1755, this architectural masterpiece was installed in the Catherine Palace near St Petersburg by the Italian architect Bartolomeo Rastrelli and it was soon called the “eighth wonder of the world”.

The Amber Room has been missing from the Second World War on. In order to recreate this showpiece in its old splendor, the best artists and architects were selected in Russia. In the museum workshop of the Catherine Palace they have revived many ancient complicated artistic methods of processing and manufacturing and have thus brilliantly reconstructed the Amber Room.
