Montegrappa Stanley Kubrick: The Shining Limited Edition Fountain Pen
With The Shining, Stanley Kubrick showed that the most frightening places are the ones inside our own minds. Montegrappa turns that vision into a collector's fountain pen limited to 237 pieces, a number that pays homage to Room 237, the most iconic door of the Overlook Hotel. It opens a new Montegrappa series dedicated to legendary filmmakers.
A pen full of cinematic details
- Rotating peephole disc: on the cap, a vermeil disc evokes the door's peephole. As it turns, the twins appear and disappear within a simulated optical assembly in sterling silver.
- Room 237 key clip: micro-cast in vermeil, the key-shaped clip carries a red acrylic resin tag.
- Jack's shadow on the nib: the 18K gold nib is engraved in vermeil with Jack's silhouette.
- Engraved end cap: a continuous engraving of the film's most chilling line wraps the end cap as a warning against obsession.
Free Drop Reservoir: the elevator scene, on paper
Like the elevator doors that open onto a torrent of blood, the barrel reveals the edition's innovative filling system, the Free Drop Reservoir. Through its transparent window, red ink flows onto the page with absolute control. A 50 ml ink bottle is included.
Rare materials
Crafted in Italy from sterling silver 925, vermeil, wood and translucent red acrylic resin. Small colour variations are a natural result of the artisanal process and prove the authenticity of each piece.
The REDRUM display case
Each pen is presented in a display case that recreates, in miniature, the Torrance family apartment door, marked with the word REDRUM, which reads MURDER when reflected in a mirror.
Nib options
18K gold nib: EF, F, M, B and Stub 1.1.
