Montblanc Peggy Guggenheim 888

Thanks a lot for the correction I didn't know about this as 19 years ago I would have never dreamt about having such a pen..but is good to know that it was still relatively long since the last rose gold edition.

 

 

Actually my friends, the Pope Julius II 888 was also rose gold. I believe it was more recent than the Catherine the Great. Only reason I went for these two back in the days

Thanks for posting the writing sample. I too share the view now that uninked modern pens are such a waste. Enjoy!

 

indeed...I don't really understand the point of a pen that cannot be used to write

With my coral pens I go for something green, usually. I rarely match body with color but rather with what will make a suiting contrast.

 

 

yes I am also not bound by the colour of the pen and I might change it to something else soon ...Defoe palm green my favourite green but I want to use some of the leonardo too..it was so hard to get that it must be used

Thanks for the photos! gorgeous pens Still it seems to be the first 888 in rose gold in 11 years then

 

The other 2 888 I have are yellow gold (stairway and sforza) so I think that this is a nice fit and a very art deco design that I love. It feels very contemporary !

Lovely pen - I have the 4810 version. The Pope Julius 888 was in Rose Gold also - still my favourite POA 888.

Thanks for your comment! I think the 4810 is fantastic too. I just loved the unusual colour of the 888 but both are really very nice. I also had a chance to see the 88 and is also something ....but love the orange/coral of this one!

That's a neat idea.
