Throughout history, mankind has always shown a natural instinct to express its feelings, impressions and experiences in words. So did Bram Stoker, who was many things: civil servant, theatre manager, progressive thinker, but, above all, a pioneer of the horror genre, a writer who created in Dracula not only a character of literature but also a myth. In the Irish novelist’s work of 1897, the infamous, centuries-old figure of the vampire found its definitive literary form. In honour of thhhe author of this classic tale of horror, Montblanc has created the Writers Edition Homage to Bram Stoker Limited Edition 1897, with a special focus on the symbolism of bats. Bram Stoker’s superb depiction of scenery and the appearance of Draca takes the reader’s breath away even today. This ill-omened atmosphere is captured in the unusual surface finish of the cap and barrel of the Limited Edition 1897, created using a special oxidisation process on Ag 925 sterling silver.The shape of this writing instrument is a nod to a milestone in medical technology, the Pravaz syringe, which was operated by a screw mechanism. The vampire’s ‘bite marks’ are suggested by the two red garnets on the clip ring, while the clip, in turn, harkens back to a writing instrument from one of Montblanc’s earliest collections. While the author did not live to experience the worldwide fame of his iconic Count, he alone deserves the honour of the Writers Edition Homag
