“The company’s engineers studied the silhouettes of pens produced since the 1930s.”

Kommersant FM columnist Anna Minakova talks about what a writing pen looks like, created based on the study of all possible models since the mid-twentieth century.

Brilliance on a budget, something like “an excellent product at an attractive price,” is what Montegrappa writes about its Magnifica model. Translated from Italian, the immodest name is “Magnificent”. What is this new product?

As the creators say, the company’s engineers studied the silhouettes of pens produced since the 1930s and, using computer modeling, created an ergonomic and elegant model based on them. Thus, its 12 faces are inspired by the complex geometry of collectible models of the mid-twentieth century, but this is not a repetition – never before have such elements been implemented with such subtlety, precision and ergonomics.

Or here’s more about technology – the clip on the cap has been tested for 20 thousand attachments. Thanks to modern technology. Let’s say that Montegrappa convinced us that this is an excellent product. As for the attractive budget, it is €395 for a ballpoint pen, €425 for a fountain pen. With the latter, you can select the pen stiffness.
