Montblanc Muses Maria Callas fountain pen

The Montblanc Muses Maria Callas Special Edition is dedicated to one of the most charismatic sopranos of the 20th century and appreciated style icon. With her talent, passion and personality, she embodied a certain ideal of the operatic diva. In some of the world’s greatest opera houses, from La Scala in Milan, to the Paris Opera, to New York’s Metropolitan Opera, she was known as “La Divina” – the divine one. The edition highlights one of her favourite colours, turquoise, in the precious resin of the cap and barrel, while reflecting Maria Callas’s graceful beauty in its slender, elegant silhouette. In memory of her sea-encircled Greek homeland, the platinum-coated clip is decorated with a stone whose colour is reminiscent of the radiant turquoise blue of the Aegean Sea. A costume detail from one of her recognizable bel canto roles, Bellini’s “Norma”, is reflected in a pattern of laurel leaves surrounding the platinum-coated cone of the edition along with the embossed signature of the celebrated soprano. The handcrafted Au 585 solid gold, rhodium-coated nib is embossed with the kohl outlined cat eyes so typical of her image, as well as the name that is inseparable from Maria Callas: “La Divina”.
