S.T. Dupont teamed up with renowned manga artist, Eichiro Oda, to create the breath-taking Sleeping Mermaid to celebrate their 140th anniversary.
A mermaid is a mythological aquatic creature with a female human head, arms, and torso and the tail of a fish. Mermaids are represented in the folklore, literature and popular culture of many countries worldwide. Human-animal hybrids such as the mermaid convery the emergent understanding of our ancient history, that human beings were both one with and different from animals.
The theme image is to express the appearance of a mermaid curled up in the sea and closed her eyes sleeping.
Philippe Tournaire, the master of jewelry craftsmanship, has been adhering to the same strict craftsmanship for more than 40 years. The charm, open mind, and infinite innovation brought by handmade jewelry craftsmanship and original style decoration create a masterpiece that combines the style of One Piece Oda.
Fans of Eichiro Oda’s work may recognize similarities in the mermaid depicted in this piece as the one and only, Shirahoshi Hime (Princess Shirahoshi). She is the most popular character during the Fishmen Arc of Oda’s One Piece and easily recognized by her size in the story. The Néo-Classique Pen and Ligne 2 Lighter feature a yellow gold finish (with blue PVD coating on the mechanism). Each piece is engraved with Eiichiro Oda’s mermaid artwork. Take a closer look, the mermaid is sleeping in the golden lines, supported by “gold pearls”.
The Premium Collection includes a Premium Fountain Pen / 141859, Rollerball / 142859 and Ligne 2 Lighter / 016051
Each limited to 1,111 pieces worldwide.
