Product Features

| Cap Top | The emblem is made of mother-of-pearl. |
| Clip | The clip is enriched with a dark red Mozambique garnet in heard shape (~0,81 ct.) which reflects passion and pain. |
| Overall Design | The design is deeply influenced by the indigenous Mexican culture, which is apparent in her use of bright colours and dramatic symbols.

The skeletonised piece is made of Au750 solid champagne-tone gold. |
| Cone | The engravings on the cone are based on typical Mexican patterns. |
| Nib | The Au750 solid gold nib is enriched by her portrait, surrounded by Mexican ornaments. |
| Limitation | The limitation refers to her 70-pages diary. |
Marketing Verbiage
Frida Kahlo was considered as one of Mexico's greatest artist, painting mostly self-portraits. Kahlo's works reflect the pain she had to go through after a severe accident and are admired for their intense, vibrant colours. Married to Diego Rivera she became not only recognised for her art but also as an icon for feminism.
