The celestial globe found on Warsaw’s Copernicus Monument is a key reference to the life and wisdom of the great Polish astronomer. Its mechanical movement stimulates thinking with elegant play factor.

Copernicus transformed the world with his heliocentric theory. By proposing that Earth and the planets orbited the sun, he ran counter to the conventional wisdom of scientists, philosophers and the clergy.

550 fountain pens and rollerballs commemorate the anniversary of Copernicus’ birth, and the profound impact of his findings. Astronomer, mathematician, physician, priest… he was a man ahead of his time
