  • Montegrappa… First 360º Design Portal Offers Exotic Materials, Hi- Fidelity Rendering and Complete Design Control
    History and Future e live in a world that places a high value on time. Instruments made to count time have come to command astronomical prices. Yet in the manic, noisy crossfire of modern life, objects designed to make time count for more are rare. For more than a century, a family company nested in the Italian Dolomites has remained relentlessly curious about perfecting the deeply personal – often magical – relationship between paper and the human mind. Since beginning our quest for perfection in 1912, we have watched words - and the countless hours we devote to them – become devalued by abundance. ‘Progress’ has often come at the price of values, meaning and truth. Far from representing a suspension of progress, Montegrappa pens exist so that connoisseurs of thought and devotees of words may savour the luxury of slowing time down. “All you have to do is write one true sentence. Write the truest sentence that you know.” Ernest Hemingway Write the truest sentence that you knowWrite the Many of our friends and rivals delight in celebrating pens as relics of days gone by. With the greatest of respect, we beg to differ. Whereas others portray themselves as keepers of tradition, Montegrappa remains steadfastly committed to the tradition of innovation. Our manufactory is situated in the exact location where Italian fountain pen production began more than a century ago. Within these walls, antique artisanal high jewellery craft stands shoulder-to-shoulder with high- precision, computer-controlled technologies. But technical excellence is the very least our community of Montegrappisti deserves. Above all, the imaginations of fantasists, visionaries, and our most exuberant users are what spur us on to ever more audacious and uncommon creations.

  • Read a Message from the Specialist About the Sale Here
    A MESSAGE FROM THE SPECIALIST Welcome to PBA's latest Fine Pens sale, featuring over 400 lots of modern and vintage writing instruments. The offerings in today's sale come from some of the most illustrious collections in Europe, Asia and the United States, and represent some of the most outstanding pens currently available on the market. Leading the sale is a selection of almost 100 modern Montblanc pens, most of which come from one of the leading collections of Europe. The selection includes numerous Writers Series, Patron of Art Series, and Artisan Edition masterworks. Foremost among these is a rare and coveted Gustave Eiffel fountain pen with a skeletonized 18K white gold lattice studded with an elaborate network of rivets recalling the Eiffel Tower and a transparent captop dome with a floating mother-of-pearl Montblanc star. These pens quickly vanished into private collections almost immediately upon their release in 2011, and this is the first example that I've had the privilege of offering in my decade as a penman-at- auction. The pen is immaculate, still sealed in its original plastic sheathe, untouched by human hands. Also offered is a pristine John Lennon 18K white gold skeleton pen (lot 82), an exceptional Beijing Opera Masks pen in 18K gold and Chinese lacquer (lot 84), and Artisan pens themed after Herbert von Karajan, Joan Miro, Otto von Bismarck, Salvador Dali, Antoni Gaudi and others. Vintage pens comprise an increasingly dynamic sector of the auction marketplace, and we're very pleased to offer a selection of interesting and historically significant vintage instruments.
