Description from the seller

This Montegrappa 1912 fountain pen, crafted in marbled celluloid in yellow and green tones, with details in 925 sterling silver, is presented in excellent condition. It is a piece that reflects the masterful craft and classical elegance of the Italian house, showing barely any signs of handling and preserved in a display case. The body and cap retain their original shine, with an attractive pearlescent grain and no cracks, scratches, or color alterations. The rings and the clip, made of silver, maintain a uniform and natural patina, with crisp engravings and the '925' stamp clearly visible. The bi-color 18-karat gold nib, engraved with the brand’s characteristic Greek key motif, is in perfect condition, with no deformations or wear, guaranteeing a smooth and steady ink flow. The piston filling system operates correctly, with a firm seal and smooth movements, evidencing proper maintenance. The metallic '1912' emblem on the finial/heel remains intact, with its relief well defined. It comes with its original Montegrappa green case, velvet interior, and warranty leaflet, all in optimal condition. Overall, it is a high-quality collector’s piece, ideal for the connoisseur seeking a fountain pen with historical character, excellent function, and a refined and distinctive aesthetic.

Happy bidding!
