Omschrijving product
The Montblanc Writers Edition Homage to Brothers Grimm , is dedicated to the Brothers Grim. They were among the first and best-known collectors of German and European folk tales, and popularized traditional oral tale types such as Cinderella, The Frog Prince, Hansel and Gretel, Beauty and the Beast, The Threee Little Pigs, Snow White,... Their classic collection, Children's and Household Tales (Kinderund Hausmärchen), was published in two volumes — the first in 1812 and the second in 1815.
The overall silhouette of the writing instrument is shaped like an old hiking stick and the Black colour resembles the darkness of the woods which usually serve as the main stage for the Brothers Grimm´s folklore. In addition, the wave-like pattern on the cap and barrel is inspired by Rapunzel´s hair while also resembling roots as the Brothers Grimm viewed their linguistic work as "research into roots". The cap is crowned by the Montblanc Emblem in precious resin. The platinum-coated clip, reminiscent of a knobby piece of wood, surprisingly reveals the silhouette of the profile of the Brothers Grimm when turned.
