A company born just before the First World War, Montegrappa is especially sensitive to the significance of that great conflict. For Montegrappa, the occasion is particularly moving, for it knows that soldiers send hand-written missives from the front to their loved ones back home, many using Montegrappa pens. And their billets-doux would open with “My darling…” In Italian, the greeting changes to “Mia Carissima”, the name chosen for the commemorative pen. It is fashioned from shiny Petroleum Green, Mottled Brick Red or Mottled Blackcurrant ebonite, further underlined by black resin accents and stainless steel trim. It is a reinterpretation of an historic Elmo pen that was available in the company catalogues a century ago. Mia Carissima also possesses its own secret, a technical innovation that still excites pen connoisseurs thanks to complexity that precludes its usage from becoming widespread, even a century later. Characteristic for this fountain pen and true to its vintage inspiration is its “safety nib system”. Appropriately, Mia Carissimas’s nib is made in 18k gold.
