Specifications

Cap
Cap and barrel are made of solid marble with special structure (the David sculpture). The cap ring is inspired by the Mystery Of The 33rd Tooth from the Michelangelo's painting of the Delphic Sibyl.
Top of the Cap
Cap top set with 2 floating diamonds under the dome with the culet of the of the diamonds pointing to each other, inspired by the iconic Creation of Adam in the Sistine Chapel Ceiling.
Clip
The clip is inspired by his working tools for marble - chisel.
Design
The overall design is inspired by the most iconic white marble sculpture 'David' from Michelangelo. The marble metamorphosis from barrel to cap reflect the progression of Michelangelo’s artistic style from marble sculpture: the polish to rough finishing / semi matt and deep rough finishing matt. The engraving on the forepart is inspired by his ceiling painting of Sistine chapel, a cornerstone work of High Renaissance art.
Cone
The design of the cone is inspired by Michelangelo’s style of portraying figures that seem to writhe and twist around each other in perfect aesthetic harmony, while the barrel ring bears an engraving of the name of the edition.
Feather
The Au750 solid gold nib is enriched with a fine engraving inspired by his self-portrait.
Limitation
One of his most beautiful love poems, the emotional love sonnet number 96 served as the source of inspiration for the limitation to only 96 pieces.
