MONTBLANC: Mahatma Gandhi Commemorative Fountain Pen
Created to honor Mahatma Gandhi, this pen's design pays tribute to his life and achievements. The top of the cap and cone are inspired by the spindle which Gandhi used to spin cotton – one of the symbols of Indian independence. The color white is a reference to truth and peace, while the Mandarin garnet represents the orange color that is part of the Indian flag. The medium nib shows an image of Mahatma Gandhi, walking with a stick. Limited Edition: 0369/3,000
