In 1997 Montegrappa celebrated the myth of Aphrodite by creating a fountain pen that bears her name.
The love that united Aphrodite and Adonis lives in the precious silver overlay.  The details stemming from a great manual dexterity, refine the different textures of the bark, leaves and skin.
The representation of the treasures of the sea which, according to legend, the most beautiful of all the goddesses were born are represented by the precious “mother-of-pearl” inclusions and two beads, one at the end of the clip, the other at the feet of the female sculpture.

Produced in black ebonite, Aphrodite is produced in 1912 pieces in sterling silver. The 18k gold nib comes in a medium nib grade.  This pen employs a piston filling system.
