Each species in the animal kingdom is a tile in the immensely complicated
mosaic of nature. In particular, wild animals have always exercised an irresistible, arcane fascination for man. Their capacity to confront life solely with
the strength of their own natural resources, are the very things that make them most fascinating. Montegrappa has taken inspiration from such animals,
honoring these creatures most powerfully endowed with symbolic value and most prominent in world mythology, to forge Animalia.
With Animalia,
Montegrappa has permitted a depth of expression never previously achieved, giving the craftsman the dignity of a sculptor who has created a low-relief image
from a decorative element. Numbered in production, the Animalia is limited to 1,100 sterling silver fountain pens, 300 sterling silver rollerballs, 100
fountain pens in 18kt gold, and 100 rollerballs in 18kt gold (contact us for details). Each 18kt gold nib in the collection is engraved with the design of a
tiger, repeating the miracle of an engraving that is remarkably profound and complex, even by Montegrappa's standards.
The Montegrappa Animalia
Limited Edition fountain pen features a built-in piston filling system and is available in fine, medium and broad nib sizes.
