Introduction

What you love You will protect is the mantra of an exotic new writing instrument made by Montegrappa in collaboration with National Geographic Explorers and Photographers, Uri and Helle Lvevild Golman. The Danish couples search for the worlds most elusive wildlife has earned them a formidable reputation. Now their attention is focused on tangible conservation actions, and the creation of the WILD Nature Foundation.

The WILD Explorer expedition badge engraved into the finnealreinforces its sense of purpose, but the designs coup de grce is undoubtedly its feather-shaped pocket-clip. Besides its striking beauty, the clip represents an intimate symbol of the Golmans professional and private lives together.

Their relationship began when Uri gifted Helle a wing feather left behind by a Snowy Owl. Since that moment, the couple has embarked on countless expeditions together and seen their work published in many of the worlds leading periodicals. The feather is tattooed onto Uris forearm a permanent memento of love and a shared passion for the wild.

But the couples fruitful career suffered a terrible interruption when, in December 2017, they were brutally attacked in a crowded Libreville market. Both were wounded, and while Helle was able to beat off their attacker, the severity of Uris injuries saw him placed in an induced coma. When he awoke, he had lost his powers of speech and mobility.

Nearly three years on, Uris rehabilitation continues under Helles care, and the couple harbour strong hopes of returning to the wild. From their Danish base, they have set up the WILD Nature Foundation a non-profit with an ambitious agenda of conservation awareness and action. Montegrappas partnership with the foundation led to the Italian company inviting the Golmans to collaborate on the WILD: Savannah Sunset as a gesture of solidarity and strength. Besides guiding the pens design, a cache of the couples best work features wildlife from all seven continents on a set of deluxe postcards accompanying the limited release.

Available in editions of 999 fountain pens, rollerballs and slimline ballpoints.
