Montegrappa Extra Otto Shiny Lines Broad Point Fountain Pen

Description

Some of the many signature main points of Montegrappa merchandise, including the pocket clip with roller for simple ingress to and egress from pockets, the octagonal form has long been part of the Italian area’s design language. In 2012, the year of its centenary, Montegrappa revived using the eight-sided geometric form that recurs all through its designs. Octagon now characterises a lot of Montegrappa writing instruments, including the Reminiscence, the Privilege, the Symphony, the Emblema and the NeroUno. For 2014, the octagon has been applied to essentially the most enduring of the corporate’s pen ranges: the Extra 1930. In adapting an octagonal cross-phase to the mythical Extra 1930, Montegrappa has created the Extra Otto. The octagon is the instance of geometric perfection that has long supplied Montegrappa with a undying motif, one that still supplies its own distinctive feel and level of comfort for writers who bond with their favourite pens. Fabricated from celluloid, the natural subject matter that may be employed within the manufacture of the finest pen barrels and caps, Extra Otto is obtainable as both a fountain pen and a roller ball in three remarkable new colour patterns: green-hued Malachite with the look of a semi-precious stone, Shiny Lines with glistening grey-hued stripes and the metallic look of the black-and-white Zebra. All Extra Otto fountain pens are fitted with 18k gold nibs, and can also be ordered with one in all eight nib widths, from ‘extra fine’ to ‘stub’. The trim on all Extra Otto writing instruments is constructed from sterling silver, and Montegrappa’s signature octagonal motif is engraved at the cap’s band. Extra Otto’s clip, fitted with the corporate’s roller, also boasts its own secret: a red lacquer backing.
