Montegrappa homage to Bassano del Grappa Copper Limited Edition fountain pen

A rare Montegrappa homage to Bassano del Grappa Copper Limited Edition fountain pen

This rare pen has never been used never inked, listed as used only because its not with its original boxes and documents

Both the historic traditions of grappa distilling and the aesthetic of steampunk have inspired and influenced the design of the latest addition to Montegrappa’s Cult collection. The materials used in the pens’ manufacture, reminiscent of the distilling vessels, include stainless steel, brass and copper for the cap and barrel, employed in the manner of the actual equipment’s construction.

Montegrappa’s technicians executed hand-applied hammering techniques on the copper components, while tiny screws – both functional and ornamental – remind the user of the technological inspiration of the product. Even the pocket clip continues the grappa-making theme, formed to recall the copper tubing used in the distilling process.

Exquisite touches detail both ends of this remarkable writing instrument. Inserted into the top of the cap is a disc made of real cork as used in a grappa bottle top, beneath a filigree-cut octagonal grid recalling Montegrappa’s eight-sided symbol. Lastly, the 18k gold duotone nib is embellished with a bunch of grapes on the vine.

The Cult Collection Grappa Pen has been issued as fountain pen, with both cartridge and converter feeders, and as a rollerball pen. Production is limited to 1912  for the fountain pen and 1912 for the rollerball, the given number denotes the year of establishment of the Montegrappa company.  The blind cap of the Grappa pen is reserved for the limited edition number.

The nib is made from 18K gold and is a M = medium in size

The pens original boxes were lost however a standard Montegrappa presentation case, with outer card box, card sleeve and service guide book are included , also a bottle of black Montegrappa ink
