Add to Wishlist

The Marquise de Pompadour – the charming mistress of King Louis XV – was not only one of the most charismatic figures at the court of Versailles, but also a passionate and committed art lover. The Patron of Art Edition Marquise de Pompadour honors a captivating personality and an outstanding historical figure. The cap, made of fine Meissen porcelain and decorated with a hand-painted, sepia-colored rose finished in gold, recalls the Marquise’s love of porcelain. As a tribute to the age in which she lived, the Au 750 solid gold nib is decorated by a delicate engraving typical of the rococo style. Edition 888 pays a special tribute to the Marquise de Pompadour: both the cap of this fine pen, which is lovingly decorated with a hand-painted motif of the Marquise, and the barrel, which is also hand-painted with a delicate pattern of flowers, are made of Meissen porcelain. All mountings in this Limited Edition are made of 750 solid gold.
