A superb and mint (never used, never inked) pair. The design of the Limited Edition Mahatma Gandhi has been inspired by the symbol of India’s independence, a symbol also of Gandhi’s actions: the spinning wheel. The design of the surface of the lacquer recalls the fine structure of cotton. The cap and cone with their complex ornamentation of Ag 925 sterling silver symbolize the thread, the mandarin garnet on the clip represents the orange in the Indian flag and reflects the high symbolic value of the spinning wheel. Medium 18K rhodium-plated gold nib engraved with portrait of Gandhi. It comes with all roiginal boxes and papers: outer boxes, display boxes, booklets, small hardcover books, white outer sleeves. Limited Edition: # 1964/3000. Matching number. Scarce.
