I’ve always loved Montegrappa. I have a few of their pens. My runaway most expensive pen ever is the majestic, magnificent Queen: Night at the Opera. It was a moment of madness that luckily I don’t regret at all. I like the understated but still elegant and excellent Montegrappas like the Elmo, Fortuna and the eponymous Montegrappa Montegrappa pens. Great build quality, unique style and top-drawer performance at admittedly very premium prices. I only still wish Montegrappa made their own nibs in-house like awesome Aurora has always done. I liked best the red and blue Elmo 02 you showed. An MSRP of $495 is really high. Wondering if the usual retailers’ 20% discount would fetch me the pen for $396. Then, I’d buy it. Where should I look for these, Vanessa? In any case, so good to see you again with these beauties in your hands?
Beautiful pen. Welcome back. I have always thought of Montegrappa as OTT … Elmo 2 prove them to be otherwise. Suggestion to the wise buy in Euros as the $ is very strong.
The Elmo is on super special on Goldspot. I've been eyeing the sea green for a while. Thanks for then review. I knew I could count on the gangsta! xo
I also commented on you other recent video, but you look fabulous, and have the most wicked sense of humor! Love the vidro.
Thanks so much!!!!!
Beautiful pens! Great review, as always! Ho-holy poly schmuck that's a large price tag for a pen with a steel nib, Montegrappa. Whew!

Agreed! If Montegrappa made their own nibs that would be amazing!!!! I also agree that $395 would be a better price point.
