Montegrappa Cosmopolitan Roma Aeterna Silver Fountain Pen

Montegrappa dedicates this Limited Edition of the Viaggio Collection to its own country, celebrating the splendours of the city which for centuries performed the role of capital of the world.
Roma Aeterna Limited Edition is realised with the exclusive technique of low-relief engraving. The decorations on the cap are inspired by some of the main monuments of the excavations of Pompeii: a detail of the mosaic pavement in the so-called Casa degli Amorini Dorati and a pattern which appears in the plasterwork of the vestibule of the Baths of Stabia. The Greek key pattern reproduced both on the cap and the barrel of the pen is taken from a magnificent fresco in the celebrated Villa dei Misteri, also at Pompeii. On the barrel some of the main monuments of the Roman Forum are depicted. This is an archaeological area which is among the most impressive in the world and still today it is an eloquent symbol of the power and splendour of the city.
