With The Shining, Stanley Kubrick revealed that the most frightening places to inhabit are those within our own minds. The Overlook Hotel, with its endless corridors and halls populated by supernatural presences, becomes a metaphor for consciousness wavering before a single passageway, Room 237.
In this limited edition of 237 rollerballs and fountain pens with 18K gold nibs, numbers paying homage to the most iconic element of the cinematic narrative, Montegrappa interprets Kubrick’s vision into a design of rare beauty, enriched with engraved vermeil decorations and mechanical complications that open writing to extraordinary scenarios.
