Sterling Silver Montegrappa Millennium dragon fountain
pen
Regards by both eastern
and western people, the Dragon is an auspicious creature symbolizing fortune
and authority. The Dragon is believed to bring to one good fate and has the
ability to keep evil away.
Montegrappa uses the
innovative technique of die-casting to bring life this majestic creature.
The clip is shaped like a claw holding the ball depicting the extreme power
to show one's esteemed position.
The body of the pen
besides precious metals is made of "Mandarin Yellow" (Emperor
Yellow) resin which is a symbolic color of the imperial family and royal
house. On the top of the cap, a "2000" engraving signifies the
arrival of the Millennium 2000, the coming of the 21st century ushered in by
the Golden Dragon.
It is very difficult to
find this in USA because this was specially made for Asia only. The limited
quantity of 366 pieces for the sterling
silver have made these pens hard to get. In fact this pen has been sold out
already. Nothing from the factory anymore. There are basically a few reasons
why this pen was a sellout,
1) there are easily more
than 366 Montegrappa collectors in Asia and in the world
2) Asian always loves
dragon pens for it means power and status. Look at all the dragon pens…from
Montegrappa 1995, Pelikan 1993 Dynasty, Montblanc Imperial Dragon,
Montblanc Dragon 2000, Montblanc Meissen to HERO Return to Motherland …they are always loved by the collectors.
3) The dragon’s claw
clip is outstanding and it is extremely wonderful and prominent when you
clip it in the pocket.
4) The Emperor’s
yellow colour is the first from Montegrappa.
