Greta Garbo, one of the few divas from the silent-film era who also shot to international fame with the advent of sound films, was regarded as a “ living goddess”. Swedish born and of humble origins, her self-confidence and radiance promoted her to the role of a female icon who had a significant impact on fashions and zeitgeist. The Garbo myth – a symbol for all women, even to the present day, who resolutely go their own way.
The classic Greta Garbo Special Edition has a black resin body and ivory resin cap. The cap is embellished by a platinum-plated clip, at the tip of which is a single Akoya pearl. The top of the cap is black, with the MB snowcap logo. The snowcap is not white, but ivory to match the cap. The barrel of the pen is shaped like a 1920’s ladies’ cigarette holder – bygone emblem of elegance. The cap is shaped like a top-hat. The pen is actually meant to be an abstract version of Greta Garbo’s graceful body and style of dress: sleek black pencil-skirt clinging to the hips, topped off with a white blouse and accented with a pearl necklace.
The cap ring bear’s Greta Garbo´s engraved signature as a reference to the legendary eponym. Pen is fitted with individual design of handmade rhodium plated 18-carat gold nib.
The diamond trim and the white Akoya pearl on the clip and cap of the Greta Garbo 1905 Commemoration Edition set exquisite accents. Elegant, black precious resin with 925 sterling silver fittings and the 18-carat gold nib complete this edition, which is limited to1,905 pens to commemorate the year of Greta Garbo’s birth.
The Greta Garbo 100 Years Anniversary rose gold fountain pen – This Artisan version of the Greta Garbo pen is studded with brilliant-cut diamonds (approx. 1.76ct) beneath the grip and on the cap, and the cap top star is ringed by diamonds and set off by mother-of-pearl. The pen’s profile suggests a cigarette holder, and the clip is adorned with a luminous Akoya pearl. The 18-carat rhodium-plated gold nib is with heart-hole shaped.
