Montegrappa – Dante Alighieri Purgatorio (LTD)
Montegrappa pays homage to Dante Alighieri – writer of The Divine Comedy and the one considered the father of the Italian language, after 700 years after his death, with an epic sequel to Inferno.
Handcrafted in the first Italian fountain pen manufactory, Dante Alighieri: Purgatorio brings out the tale of the hope and redemption to life in your hand. Combining high-precision micro-sculpting with Montegrappa’s renowned writing performance, Purgatorio is a statement by itself.
From cap to top disc, every intricate element recounts Dante and Virgil’s ascent of Mount Purgatory. The clip of gold and silver keys marks their passage through Peter’s Gate.
The seven terraces of Purgatory and their punishments are reconstructed in lost-wax casting. The cleansing waters of Lethe, and earthly Paradise, are crafted in cloisonne.
