Montblanc Patron of the Arts Francois I
The Montblanc Patron of Art series represents the pinnacle of excellence in writing instruments.
François I, the king of France from 1515 to 1547, was a key figure in initiating the French Renaissance. Renowned for his patronage, he brought many great Italian artists to France, including Leonardo da Vinci. This exquisite pen is a tribute to that illustrious era.
The clip and metal bands are intricately engraved with elegant floral scrollwork, while the classic fleur-de-lis adorns both the clip and the nib. The barrel's main section features stunning tiger eye stone, whose beautiful grain gives it a wood-like appearance. The cap and the rest of the barrel are crafted from black precious resin. This fountain pen is a masterpiece, truly embodying the splendour of the Renaissance.
François I, the first Renaissance king, was a fervent patron of the fine arts. He acquired masterpieces by Italian artists such as Michelangelo and Raphael, and laid the foundations for the royal art collection in the Louvre Palace in Paris. This pen is adorned with Renaissance patterns on the clip and gold-coated rings. The nib features an engraving of the fleur-de-lis, the emblem of the French royal house.
