Montblanc John Lennon Special Edition

This year, Montblanc is celebrating a legendary musician and enduring spirit: John Lennon. Creating the John Lennon Edition Writing Instrument, Montblanc ensures that Lennon’s legend not only lives on in his verse, music and artistic legacy, but also in the beauty of a timeless writing instrument.

The Liverpool-born musician achieved international recognition as a member of The Beatles, performing to adoring fans all over the world. However, it was his solo work after the band dissolved, which established him as a cultural icon.

Not only was John admired for his music, he was also considered a great thinker, an independent mind and a true visionary whose influence shaped the intellectual mood of an era.

The John Lennon Edition is based on John Lennon’s genius, reflecting his iconic status through the creation of a fountain pen, ballpoint pen, a rollerball and a record of Lennon’s most famous single “Imagine”. Sharing many convictions about the responsibility of art and culture, Montblanc will honor John Lennon’s life, his music and his dreams by contributing to selected cultural projects which support music education and collaborating with John Lennon Education Tour Bus, a US non-profit organization providing young people with the means to learn how to compose, play, perform, record and produce songs and music videos.

Like picking up an old-style vinyl record, the John Lennon Special Edition evokes a striking feeling at a simple touch. The gentle grooves chiselled into the black precious resin of the barrel evoking a vinyl groove texture.

The Special Edition incorporates design elements of the musical genre of the 50s and 60s: The platinum-plated clip, for example, takes its inspiration from a guitar neck, with tuning pegs and finely etched strings on the neck, while the platinum-plated plaque is engraved with Lennon’s famous self-portrait. The handcrafted rhodium-plated 18k gold nib bears the message that John helped spread with his music: the peace sign.
