Just as perfect as the work of this great novelist are the Alexandre Dumas Writers Edition pens. Sheldon Rarity Factor: (R4****) Very Scarce Sets (ballpoint, pencil and fountain pen) / 5.000.Writings such as the “Philosophical Dictionary” continue to provoke the deepest discussions, and keep alive Voltaire’s memory as the spiritual father of the Enlightenment. In his older years, Voltaire dedicated himself increasingly to philosophy. Although even in his early years he came into conflict with the authorities because of the belligerency of his writings, his dramatic talent – which he used to create works such as “Candide” – made him one of the most acclaimed literary figures of his time. Voltaire and his immense body of work, including comedies, philosophical discourses and letters, are unparalleled in modern times. The 18-karat gold nib, made by a master craftsman, is finished off by delicate engravings reminiscent of the age of Voltaire. The engraved mountings and the cap top in vermeil – gold-plated 925 sterling silver – are as rich as the possessions of Voltaire, whose gold-coloured signature decorates the cap of the pen. The surface of black precious resin appears just as unfathomable as his thoughts. The Writers Edition Voltaire seems to reflect the fascinating personality of Voltaire in every detail. Sets (ballpoint, pencil and fountain pen) / 7.000.In addition to brilliant works such as “The Picture of Dorian Gray” and “The Canterville Ghost”, Oscar Wilde wrote numerous essays, poems and plays. As a central figure of London society at the end of the 19th century, he lived a decadent lifestyle, which exposed him more than once to the sharp criticism of the bourgeoisie. Oscar Wilde’s revolutionary views on the society of his day, his fight for aesthetic and moral freedom and his belief in individuality and simultaneous rejection of convention made this flamboyant man of letters a legend in his own time. And the handmade 18-karat gold nib, with its highly detailed engravings in the style of the age in which Wilde lived, complete this extraordinary tribute to an extraordinary person. An engraved signature of the author decorates the cap of the pen. Both the clip and the mountings are made of gold-plated 925 sterling silver. The unconventionally decorated barrel and the many details hint at the passionate spirit of Oscar Wilde. I am always satisfied with the very best.” This sentiment is reflected in every pen in the Writers Edition created in his honour. Oscar Wilde is quoted as having said: “I have very simple tastes. 2019 - Rudyard Kipling Writers Edition Collection.2018 - Homer Writers Edition Collection.2017 - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Writers Edition Collection.2016 - William Shakespeare Writers Edition Collection.2015 - Leo Tolstoy Writers Edition Collection.2014 - Daniel Defoe Writers Edition Collection.2013 - Honoré de Balzac Writers Edition Collection.2012 - Jonathan Swift Writers Edition Collection.2011 - Carlo Collodi Writers Edition Collection.
