ST Dupont Haute Creation Cheval de Trois Trojan Horse Fountain Pen & Base

Description

Before being a team of designers and creators, 2 SAINTS is a group of fun-loving friends who enjoy turning some of men’s greatest passions, such as music and motor sports, into cult accessories. Their world is broad and varied, covering everything from rings and bracelets to belt buckles, lighters, ashtrays, pendants, knives, key rings and more. These luxury products give men a fitting way of expressing the individuality of their virility and passion. 2 SAINTS also exists to help women who want to present their men with a gift that is special like them. All their collections are made in their plant in France. They make every single piece of jewelry and silverware in-house. Thanks to French manufacturing skill, 2 saints’ creations come with exceptional finishing.
Trojan horse is a huge hollow wooden horse constructed by the Greeks to gain entrance into Troy during the Trojan War.
Greeks persuaded the Trojans that the horse was an offering to Athena (goddess of war) that would make Troy impregnable.
Fashioned from bronze with yellow gold color hand patina, the horse is sublimed by rhodium finish for the pen. It is presented with a reconstituted marble base.
The patina of the horse is applied by hand, as each extra piece of the construction is its own independent metal piece, which is then meticulously welded into place to present one of the most amazing fountain pen displays.
This particular pen is a prototype, limited edition X/X. It comes with generic ST Dupont packaging, as it was created to be the studio piece for photography, but not for the public market. We now exclusively have this prototype available for only the most serious collectors.
