Oscar Wilde's revolutionary views on the society
of his day, his fight for aesthetic and moral freedom and
his belief in individuality and simultaneous rejection of
convention made this flamboyant man of letters a legend
in his own time. As a central figure of London society at
the end of the 19th century, he lived a decadent lifestyle,
which exposed him more than once to the sharp criticism
of the bourgeoisie. In addition to brilliant works such
as "The Picture of Dorian Gray" and "The
Canterville Ghost". Oscar Wilde wrote numerous essays
poems and plays.
Oscar Wilde is qouted as having said: "I
have very simple taste. I only like the best." This
sentiment is reflected in every pen in Writers Edition created
in his honor. The unconventionally decorated barrel and
the many details hint at the passionate spirit of Oscar
Wilde. Both the clip and the mountings are of gold-plated
925 sterling silver. An engraved signature of the author
decorates the cap of the pen. And the hand made 18-carat
gold nib, with it's highly detailed engravings in the style
of the age in which Wilde lived, complete this extraordinary
tribute to an extraordinary person.
He was uncompromising
in his rejection of bourgeois conventions. And gained a
world-wide reputation with his works "The Picture of
Dorian Gray" and "Lady Windermere's Fan".
Oscar Wilde became the archetypal dandy and the role model
for all those after him who lived a life of unbridled decadence.
Oscar Wilde's determination to live life to the full is
reflected in every detail of the voluptuous play between
the shape and colour of the Montblanc Limited Edition that
is devoted to him. The iridescent structure of the fountain
pen is just as unfathomable as the character of the man
who gave the pen its name.
If you want a Montblanc, you want the best. But
if you shop from an unauthorized source, you could end up with a
fake Montblanc, a stolen Montblanc, or product that has been
tampered with. And, if not getting a genuine Montblanc isn’t bad
enough, there’s something else you won’t get - the Montblanc Service
