Montegrappa has dedicated
this Limited Edition of the sophisticated Tribute Collection to an event
of great historical significance: the thousandth anniversary of the
foundation of the city of Kazan, capital of Tatarstan one of the
Republics which make up the Russian Federation. The dome of the Kul
Sharif mosque, the oldest in the city, has been reproduced on the end of
the pen’s cap using the exclusive technique of cold enamelling. The
city’s coat of arms is engraved with a diamond point on the base of the
cap. Other symbols of Kazan are delineated by low-relief engraving on
the surface of the silver, or gold in the case of the most precious
version, which adorns the barrel of the pen: notably the Suyumbeki Tower
and an Arabic inscription taken from the Koran. The Kazan 1000 Limited
Edition consists 500 fountain pens in sterling silver.
