AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This exquisite Montegrappa Miya presents an excellent state of conservation, combining the refinement of the cap in solid .925 silver with the luminous depth of its blue marbleized resin body. The piece maintains an impeccable presence and a uniform shine both on the metal elements and the resin, evidencing very careful use.

The silver cap shows its characteristic guilloché with crisp definition on all panels, with no noticeable wear and preserving a silky polish typical of Italian craftsmanship. The clip, firm and perfectly aligned, is free of deformities and retains its original curvature. The official marks — including the ★1140VI seal and the 925 purity — remain deeply engraved and fully legible.

The blue pearlized resin body is in outstanding condition: no dents, no microcracks, and no opaque areas. Its spiral pattern offers intense reflections that change with the light, enhancing its artistic character. The lower ring, also in silver, maintains its shine and shows no relevant signs of abrasion.

The Montegrappa two-tone nib, M point, maintains a solid appearance, though it shows a bit of wear from time and use. The decorative engraving is deep and clean, reflecting the quality that characterizes the brand. The feed is in excellent condition, indicating moderate use and proper maintenance.

The closing and screwing systems operate smoothly and precisely, with no play or abnormal friction. The pen is delivered with its original Montegrappa case, which, although showing signs of use on the exterior edges, remains intact and adequately protects the piece.

Overall, this is a collectible pen, elegant and very well preserved, ready to be enjoyed as a high‑end writing instrument or to show off in any display case. An exemplar that stands out for its beauty, quality, and state that is difficult to find on the current market.

Happy bidding!
