"Taj Mahal - Limited
Edition"
|
The Taj Mahal bears whiteness
to the external love between the Mogul emperor, Shah Jahan, and
his queen, Mumtaz Mahal. On her deathbed the queen asked her beloved
to build a monument that would be the symbol of their enduring
passion.
The greatest artists of the time and 20,000 workers devoted
themselves to building this extraordinary tomb, Jade, onyx,
coral and agate sparkle against the dazzling marble whiteness.

S.T. Dupont has
drawn inspiration from this legendary monument to create a collection
of exceptional objects.
Slim guilloched curves in platinum pick out floral motifs
similar to those carved on the monument while the gleam of iridescent
mother-of-pearl inlay brings to mind the shimmering beauty of
white marble. The marble-like beauty of these rare materials
is enhanced by the deep green radiance of Alpinite.
This exceptional limited edition is made up of two pocket
lighters, numbered from 1 to 2,000, a table lighter numbered
from 1 to 200, and a fountain pen and ballpoint numbered from
1 to 1,000. |
