41,800$ for a Ink Bottle
On the tenth anniversary of the Montegrappa Tributo ad A. Modigliani Limited Edition dedicated to the Dragon, Montegrappa is creating a valuable duo of oriental mythology by giving the Dragon its traditional companion, Montegrappa Eternal Bird: Feng Huang, the phoenix, which can rise reborn from its own ashes.
must admit that it looks interesting, but 41,800$ ??!
Today the symbol of rebirth and the individual spirit and always the symbol of the eternal death and rebirth of nature through the cycle of the seasons, the immortal bird appears with slight modifications in many far-flung transformations, through its constant association with the sun and with fire. Montegrappa has commissioned the same artist who gave life to the Dragon to create the sculpture of the Eternal Bird, reproduced on the ink bottle body with the sophisticated technique of die-casting.
