Writers Edition Homage to Robert Louis Stevenson Limited Edition 1883 fountain pen. The Montblanc Writers Edition Homage to Robert Louis Stevenson set celebrates the writer with a prolific imagination.
The novel Treasure Island inspired many details of this edition. The writing instrument and the rings of the cone form a whole that evokes a historic extendable spyglass. Retelling the story of Treasure Island, this edition features the famous Hispaniola on a barrel coated in precious black lacquer.
Setting out on a long voyage, the Hispaniola displays a British flag flying behind a small porthole. To recall the plot, which notably tells of a pirate mutiny, a small button rotates the flag to reveal a pirate flag. Vertical lines recall the planks of the schooner Hispaniola, while the signature gold-coated cap is adorned with a traditional ship's chest.
Behind the signature gold-coated clip, the lines converge to form a compass rose. This clip imitates the shape of a belaying pin, to which the rigging rope of a ship is usually fastened. The top of the cap is crowned with the Montblanc emblem in mother-of-pearl.
The cap ring bears Stevenson's engraved signature. In homage to Robert Louis Stevenson's passion for sailing and his settling in the South Seas, the handcrafted 18 K gold nib features an engraving depicting clouds and seagulls as well as the title the Samoans gave to this great writer and traveler: Tusitala.
