The overall design of this pen is inspired by the “atlatl”, an Aztec spear-throwing tool. With the shape of the pen’s tail designed to look like it was struck with a hammer, the tail of the pen is based on the Aztec sacrificial knife, which usually has a blade made of obsidian.

The pen body consists of two parts, both lacquered in two colors: carmine red and petrol blue – inspired by the royal robes of the Aztecs. The two hieroglyphs on the cap represent the years of Moctezuma I’s reign.

The handcrafted 18K solid gold nib is adorned with an intricate engraving inspired by the Aztec iconography of the city of Tenochtitlán: a three-branched cactus with a royal crown and two scrolls.
