Caran d'Ache limited edition pens for Christmas 2011
This upcoming Christmas is going to be a gold rush (literally!) for those who love writing or collecting them, and also those who are looking to gift something special within their circles. The limited edition collection from Caran d’Ache has bought in a plethora of high-end writing instruments, done in various Indian mythological that promise to be more than just gifting pens; they are indeed collectible works of divine art to be possessed.
Known more commonly as the ‘Artist collection’, each of these pens feature detailed crafted work of precious metals and stones, which have been engraved with precision, and are symbolic of tales associated with the Indian deities called ‘Balaji’ and ‘Venkateshwara’. Balaji is known as the personification of the supreme goddess who has the power to absorb all sins of the world, whereas Venkateshwara is one of the most venerated of deities, who gets special prayers from his followers every year at the temple of Tirupati in India, simply for the way he can influence lives of people. However, in this case they are available in 2 collections; Balaji Limited edition, and the solid gold and silver collection. The Limited edition Balaji series (pictured below) has 5 options: Stylus Balaji (€6,700/ $8,869), Roller Balaji (€5,900/ $7,810), and Massive Gold Stylus Balaji (€28,500/ $37,725), Massive Gold Roller Balaji (€27,500/ $36,402), and the Balaji Diamond Stylus 166 (€44,000/ $58,243).
The next of the lot is the solid gold and sterling silver series (seen below), which features even greater detailing of artwork, and more extensive use of these precious metals. The pricing range is as follows: Sterling Silver Fountain Pen (€6,500/ $8,604), Roller Sterling Silver Pen (€5,800/ $7,677), Solid Gold Fountain Pen (€27,300/ $36,137), and the Solid Gold Roller Pen (€26,500/ $35,078). Also, there will be a Sterling silver pen based on the oriental theme of the importance of the Bamboo, and is known to be a sign of perseverance, loyalty and longevity. Though the artwork on the body is either in silver or gold, the casing of the pen is mainly emerald green in color (seen top most). Works wonder for contrasts.
