This Montblanc Writers Edition fountain pen was released in 1993 as a tribute to the author Agatha Christie. The pen is crafted from black precious resin and features accents in 925 sterling silver.
Measuring 14.5 cm in length, its most distinctive design element is a clip shaped like a slithering snake, with two rubies set as the serpent's eyes. The fountain pen is equipped with a 750/000 gold nib and employs a piston filling mechanism. This specific writing instrument is part of a limited production run, identified as number 25469 of 30,000 pieces released for that year. The pen is accompanied by its original box.
The aesthetic combines a sleek, minimalist body with intricate, thematic detailing inspired by the writer's work. The high-quality materials and signature snake motif serve as hallmarks of the limited series, reflecting the attention to craftsmanship characteristic of the Montblanc Writers Edition line produced in Germany.
