SHIVA: Caran dAches latest offering to pen aficionados across the world has been created in honour of the Hindu God, Shiva. After crafting Buddha and Ganesh, both exceptional pieces, Caran d?Ache has collaborated with renowned Swiss jeweler and artist, Edouard Jud, to produce The Limited Edition Shiva, the latest addition to the Artiste Collection. Handcrafted in 800 solid silver with a distinctive finish, these glorious pieces successfully evoke the mystery and symbolism associated with this deity. The pen's cap is crowned with an agate, a semi-precious stone carefully chosen by Caran d'Ache craftsmen for its intense blue that brings to mind the vibrant hues of India and the colour of Shiva's skin.The personification of the Absolute, Shiva appears on the body and cap of the writing instrument in several representations of his destructive and regenerative power. The third eye of Shiva is engraved on the writing instrument, symbolizing wisdom and spiritual knowledge. Not far away, Shiva Nataraja, the cosmic dancer, moves to the rhythm of his damaru using his four arms to indicate the dimensions of space that are necessary for ascension to a new world. From the agate that adorns the cap to the diamond that highlights the trident, the fine engravings and gilded details on the body of the pen express the mystical spirit of this God. Featuring a rhodium-coated 18 carat gold nib, this fine writing instrument is spectacular, to say the least.Limited to108 individually numbered cosmic writing instruments worldwide.
