A special groove is made on the "culet" of each stone, which has also been given four extra facets. Slid onto the threads of the lattice design, the stones are held in place side by side without any visible setting and without any spaces between them.
Montblanc's meticulously crafted skeleton body allows the delicate white gold ornaments to appear to float on the background of transparent resin. A butterfly in white gold with diamonds sits on the clip. The rhodium-plated solid gold nib is finely engraved to commemorate the two companies' centennials.
"The Mystery is the world's most original, beautiful, intricately jeweled creation," said Lutz Bethge, Managing Director, Montblanc International. "It marks the beginning of a new category of art; it is fine jewelry, that happens to write. It's an unparalleled creation, as Montblanc and Van Cleef & Arpels are at the pinnacle of jewelry design and craftsmanship."
