Milky Way

The Milky Way is the galaxy in which the solar system is located. Its name is the translation of the Latin Via Lactea, which derives from the Greek Γαλαξίας (Galaxias). Marlen had the pleasure of creating this limited edition of just 38 fountain pens and 28 rollerballs dedicated to the world of astronomy. A special hot enameling technique was used to depict the painting. Hot enameling is a process that involves the liquefaction of powdered crystals at temperatures between 650 and 800 degrees Celsius. Numerous steps are required to produce the final product. The subject is first painted on a transparent enamel base using colored crystals mixed with special oils. The pen is then fired several times to secure the painting. Once the desired result is achieved, the miniature is then covered with a layer of transparent enamel and cleaned.
