Montblanc - Bohème Lacquer Pearl - Pen

Lot A0000005179 The pen is in excellent overall condition, showing an impeccable aesthetic appeal and full mechanical functionality after having been meticulously inspected. It is a beautiful and highly coveted example of German craftsmanship Montblanc, belonging to the sophisticated and now discontinued Bohème collection in its exclusive "Lacquer Pearl" version (Factory Reference 36009), characterized by combining high writing craftsmanship with jewelry-like details. [ THE LACQUER BODY AND THE GUILLOCHÉ ENGRAVING ] The central body or barrel stands out for its refined manufacture, made on a metal base coated with a white pearl lacquer with subtle iridescent specks that shift hue depending on the incidence of light. The entire lacquered surface features an intricate and clean three-dimensional guilloché engraving with a pattern of waves and concentric circles perfectly executed, offering a highly striking visual and tactile texture. The lacquer retains its original gloss intact, free of runs, cracks or enamel loss, showing a smooth surface meticulously cared for. [ THE STIRRUP CLIP AND THE AKOYA PEARL ] The metal and ornamental elements boast a sumptuous high-bright gold plating, with a mirror-like, very clean finish and free of wear in the friction zones. The front features its iconic arched clip in the shape of a stirrup, characteristic of the Bohème series, at its base superbly mounted a natural Akoya pearl in white nacre tone with perfect orientation and no surface imperfections. At the apex, the piece is crowned by Montblanc’s six-point star emblem made of white resin on a flat black polished background. [ MECHANICAL SECTION AND AUTHENTICITY DETAILS ] Functionally, the instrument operates via a precise twist-action mechanism in the upper section, which moves smoothly, firmly, and without play for the extraction and hiding of the nib. The triple gold-plated central ring presents magnificent sharpness in its raised engravings, where the signatures "MONTBLANC" and "BOHÈME" are clearly legible. Likewise, the reverse of the clip preserves with absolute cleanliness the individual serial number laser-engraved and the origin inscription "GERMANY" that certify the piece’s authenticity. [ OVERALL LOT ASSESSMENT ] Overall, this is a high-end contemporary design piece, very well preserved, breaking with the traditional sobriety of black resin to offer an aristocratic aesthetic and great collectible value. It remains an excellent writing instrument or a solid investment due to its discontinued boutique model status, which enhances its appeal in the luxury secondary market. [ CONSERVATION RECOMMENDATIONS ] To guarantee optimal long-term maintenance of the piece, it is recommended to clean the pearlescent lacquer surface and gold-plated elements with a dry microfiber cloth after handling to prevent grease or fingerprint buildup. It is advised to use exclusively original Montblanc refills to ensure smooth internal threading action and to protect the fountain pen inside its case when transporting to avoid metal-on-metal contact with other objects. [ SHIPPING AND PACKAGING DETAILS ] The lot will be properly protected in its original Bohème presentation rigid case with black satin interior, accompanied by its corresponding printed "Service Guide" and the outer black textured carton slipcase that retains its factory original label with the matching reference code 36009. Happy bidding!
