Grand Place
- the world’s most beautiful theatre
The breathtaking Grand Place, in Flemish the “Grote Markt”, is situated at the heart of Brussels’ old town and is on the UNESCO
world cultural heritage list. More than 30 old guild houses with wonderful renaissance and baroque gable roofs reflect its
importance as a commercial centre and the glorious past of the craft guilds. Together with the delicate gothic design of the
seven storey town hall they form a unique ensemble, the facades of which recount the history of the city and tell of heroes,
saints and reallife satirical stories. The writer Jean Cocteau said: “The Grand Place in Brussels is the world’s most beautiful
theatre!”.
The Special Edition “Grand Place” impresses with its complex decoration in casting resin with gently graduated colours, adorned
within gold-plated elements. Each writing instrument has a fascinating and intricate personality, as unique as the place and
name that it carries.
The piston pump fountain pen has an 18-carat gold nib with rhodanized decoration, masterfully formed, polished and carefully
run in by a master’s hand. The ball-point pen is fitted with a twist mechanism and an international standard largevolume cartridge.
The exclusive roller-ball also delivers the look of ink handwriting with its smooth, comfortable action.
