Offering a mix of engineering, design and exhilarating writing pleasure, the Montegrappa Moon Landing Limited Edition boasts a striking combination of white pearlized resin and polished Sterling Silver trim, with decorative enameling to evoke the fuselage markings of the original craft. A semi-detachable barrel allows users to simulate the separation of the second and third stages of the Saturn V rocket, and reveal special viewing windows that expose the pen’s internal ink flux mechanism. Both features are designed to heighten the experience of an object made to appeal to inquisitive, playful minds. The pocket clip recalls the tower crane of the Cape Kennedy launch pad, while its blindcap features the conical rocket thrusters that supplied the Saturn V with an incredible 160 million horsepower. In its fountain pen variant, an 18k gold nib — available in Fine, Medium and Broad grades — bears an engraving of the official Apollo 11 mission patch; Montegrappa.com.

Still Waters
Some of the pieces in this editorial took 300 hours to make. Some were crafted by hand in Miami. Some exist as one-of-a-kind in the world. Shot at the Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Still Waters is an introduction to the women who build their businesses stitch by stitch, bead by bead, and to the women who wear them. Not because she was told to, but because she knows the difference.
Eternal Bonds
Key Biscayne has a way of slowing time — and the OUTSTANDING mothers OF KEY BISCAYNE who call it home are making the most of every moment, raising families where the water is always close and community runs deep.
