IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MONTBLANC
Montblanc celebrates the joy of writing, travel and gift-giving this season …
This year’s Happy Holidays capsule pays homage to Montblanc’s heritage of writing and travel, combining timeless storytelling with everyday functionality. Crafted in embroidered ivory canvas and black leather detailing, the collection pieces feature a hand-drawn illustration inspired by a 1924 Montblanc advertisement. Depicting a traveling couple, the advertisement’s motif has been reimagined with the two figures at the foot of the Mont Blanc mountain, surrounded by vintage planes, trains, and letters in flight, capturing the Maison’s enduring belief in the power of writing to connect people across distance and time. The same artwork adorns the Notebook and Pen Pouch included in the Montblanc Happy Holidays Set 2025, a limited edition of only 100 pieces worldwide.
WRITING INSTRUMENTS
For those who appreciate the art of writing, the Meisterstück 149 Fountain Pen remains an icon. First introduced in 1924, the Meisterstück is a symbol of writing excellence, with its black precious resin cap and barrel and a handcrafted Au 750 gold nib. The Sartorial 1 Pen Pouch in full-grain black leather features an envelope-inspired silhouette and offers an elegant companion to Montblanc writing instruments. Both the pouch and fountain pen can be personalised for a special touch.
LEATHER GOODS
Crafted in supple grain leather in an earthy noisette shade, the Document Case echoes the details of Montblanc’s fountain pen nib through its stitching, zip pullers and handle detailing. With top handles and a detachable shoulder strap, it offers a versatile blend of practicality and sartorial refinement. The Montblanc Companion Backpack, in khaki-coloured grain leather, makes for a sleek daily companion with its thoughtfully arranged external zipped pockets for effortless organization.
Ideal for short trips and escapes, the Weekender is available in black grain leather or khaki-hued corteccia leather finished with a gradient sfumato finish. A spacious interior and external lock-and-key closure balance utility with elegance.
The compact Montblanc Envelope Clutch in black and noisette-coloured grain leather pays tribute to the Maison’s roots with its writing-inspired design. Accented with Meisterstück calfskin detailing, the clutch can also be worn by a wrist strap while an open back pocket offers convenient access to essentials.
Completing the leather goods selection, the Montblanc Companion Crossbody provides lightweight versatility in khaki-coloured grain leather, with nib-shaped side cutouts that are a recurring signature of Montblanc’s design language.
WATCHES
For those seeking adventure in every moment, the Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen captures the majesty of Mer de Glace, the largest glacier in the Mont Blanc Massif. Its light blue dial, finished with a gradient sfumato effect, is brought to life through the gratté-boisé technique to evoke the depth and texture of glacial ice. The 38mm stainless steel case is equipped with Montblanc’s 0 Oxygen technology, providing durability and accuracy even in extreme temperature conditions. A bi-colored blue anodised aluminium bezel, 3D laser-engraved caseback, and adjustable stainless steel bracelet complete the design.
