Lagos, December 2023 — Nigeria’s leading luxury retail company, Polo Limited, and Providus Bank, hosted a spellbinding Montblanc Collector’s Evening on the 6th of December 2023 in Victoria Island, Lagos. This exclusive event celebrated the artistry of Montblanc’s first Masters of Art collection of writing instruments in honour of Vincent van Gogh.
The unveiling took place on Wednesday, 6th December, 2023 at the Providus Bank pent house where its interior was transformed to mirror Saint-Remy-de-Provence, a town in Southern France where the 19th century Master of Art, Vincent van Gogh lived most of his life as an artist. Guests were guided through wheat fields reminiscent of the scenery that became associated with much of Vincent van Gogh’s work.
The evening unfolded with a captivating showcase of Montblanc’s homage to Vincent van Gogh writing instruments, providing discerning clients with an immersive journey through the brand’s legacy of precision and craftsmanship. Limited-edition pieces, each a masterpiece in its own right, were displayed, allowing clients explore the artistry behind these coveted collector’s items.
Mr. John Obayuwana, Managing Director, Polo Limited said, “it was a real pleasure meeting some of the avid pen collectors while celebrating the exceptional artistry of Montblanc’s craftsmanship”
