The pen comes with a cap and barrel made from translucent grey lacquer and a signature 18K gold barrel coating. The barrel is inspired by the Crystal Palace that Albert built and where he hosted the “Great Exhibition” in 1851. The grey is a tribute to the tartan fabric that Albert created himself for Balmoral Castle in Scotland.

The metal fittings are platinum-plated. The shape of the pen clip is a tribute to his wife’s scepter and is decorated with a red garnet. The top of the pen is inspired by the dome of the Crystal Palace and is decorated with the Montblanc emblem made of mother-of-pearl. The ring on the cap is engraved with “Albert” and their wedding date, like a wedding ring, while a special engraving decorates the pen’s tail.
