Montegrappa My Guardian Angel LE Silver & Blue Fountain Pen (M)

During periods of turmoil and uncertainty, humanity appreciates the comforting thought that each of us has a Guardian Angel. It is a concept that exists in and transcends religions and cultures, a sense that we are not alone in times of trouble. As a lucky charm, an object to touch – from Greek ‘worry’ beads to rosaries to a mezuzah to a rabbit’s foot – a small, physical representation can symbolize this spirit. It can comfort the holder, its mere presence enough to reassure an individual of the existence of a higher spirit, who cares for the welfare of each one of us. To create such a talisman, Montegrappa has designed a pen called My Guardian Angel. For that intangible spirit that guides our lives, a totem of all that is good when times are bad, My Guardian Angel is a writing instrument that recognizes the positive energy common to all faiths, in a form that is uplifting and life-affirming. An angel embraces the pen, in the way that goodness acts as a cloak around the soul. It takes the form of a celluloid cap and barrel in a cloud-like color, embraced by low-relief engravings in sterling silver, inlaid with sky-blue enamel and turquoise details. The design features an angel standing tall on the barrel, with sword and shield, the clip taking the form of an angel’s wings. The cap’s top is a dome of blue, inlaid with the rays of the sun. It is Montegrappa’s wish that those in possession of these items will feel a sense of inclusion, and of peace. This unique pen is part of a Limited Edition series of 1000.
