Pantalone, the odd Venetian Merchant with his wise view of the world. The seductive Daphne, nymph of Apollo and symbol of the indomitable femininity. The Yellow Tiger, in Chinese mythology the symbol of the sun and the ruler of the world. Hand-painted by a master craftsman, these figures are found as filigree motifs on caps made of the finest Meissen porcelain, whose world-famous origin is symbolized by the blue crossed swords. The gold-plated body with its fine guilloche and the 18-karat gold nib complete the perfection of the Annual Edition 2006. Like all Annual Editions also Edition 2006 is in any case limited to 300 items and will be available for a maximum of one year.
