Il Magnifico Calacatta Gold
Calacatta marbles have been reserved throughout history for only the most prestigious projects and art works, such as those by Michelangelo and Donatello. It is synonymous with luxury, elegance and sophistication. In fact, its prestige is due to both its quality and rarity: its production in Carrara is limited and controlled as are all the finest products of Italy.
History
The Il Magnifico collection, dedicated to Lorenzo de Medici, celebrates the most powerful and enthusiastic patron of Renaissance culture in Italy during his reign as ruler of the Florentine Republic. As a patron of the arts, he is best known for his sponsorship of artists such as Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, and Michelangelo who along with other great Renaissance artists created outstanding works of both art and science by exploring nature and precious materials.
The Calacatta Gold is presented in a custom Il Magnifico limited edition box to match the pen.
