Description, Pen Details & Design: The Città d’Arte Venezia is part of Montegrappa’s celebrated Città d’Arte (“City of Art”) series, created to honor the world’s great cultural capitals. This edition pays tribute to Venice, Italy – the “Queen of the Adriatic” – a city of unmatched history, beauty, and artistry. Handcrafted in sterling silver, the cap and barrel are adorned with intricate high-relief engravings that capture the romance and grandeur of Venice. At the heart of the design is Saint Mark’s Basilica, depicted in a deep-relief panorama that includes its soaring domes, graceful arches, ornate rosette windows, and the quadriga (four bronze horses) standing proudly above the entrance. The basilica is watched over by the Winged Lion of Saint Mark, Venice’s enduring symbol of courage and majesty. A repeating band of rosette and trefoil medallions encircles the shoulders and tail of the overlay, adding rhythmic detail. The artistry is enhanced by a contrast finish-dark patination enriches the recessed areas, while mirror-polished highlights emphasize the raised architectural elements. The cap, which screws securely onto the barrel, is crowned with a medallion of the Winged Lion. The sculpted metal clip features Montegrappa’s signature rolling wheel, a nod to navigation and the city’s proud maritime heritage, while the cap band is adorned with elegant scrollwork reminiscent of Renaissance stone carvings. Rich Venetian red lacquer accents the cap and barrel ends, providing a warm contrast to the cool silver. Each pen is hand-finished using traditional die-casting and lost-wax casting techniques-time-honored methods that reflect Venice’s rich artistic legacy and evoke the warm glow of its sunset-lit canals. The sterling-silver barrel is engraved and polished by hand, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship and artistry for which Montegrappa has been renowned since 1912. The Città d’Arte collection immortalizes iconic cities through master craftsmanship, combining architecture, symbolism, and storytelling in precious metals. Each edition is produced in limited quantities, ensuring collectability and investment value. Venice has inspired artists, explorers, and dreamers for centuries. Known for its opulent architecture, labyrinthine canals, and vibrant history as a center of trade, Venice is itself a work of art. Montegrappa’s artisans sought to capture the city’s soul in miniature: the grandeur of Saint Mark’s Basilica, the guardianship of the winged lion, and the interplay of water, stone, and light. Every detail is a reminder of Venice’s resilience, beauty, and enduring place in human imagination. This pen is not just a writing instrument – it is a love letter to Venice, preserved in sterling silver. Known for their bold designs, precious materials, and impeccable attention to detail, Montegrappa pens are treasured worldwide by collectors and writers alike.

Moritz in a luxurious series of pens. These handcrafted pens and rollerballs beautifully represent both the village itself and the unique aura that surrounds it. Moritz is unlike any other resort, symbolizing everything a Swiss destination should be: genteel and refined, exclusive yet welcoming. Since it first welcomed skiers nearly 150 years ago, St. Moritz has become synonymous with luxurious getaways in the global consciousness. Located in the Engadin Valley, St. Moritz first attracted visitors as a proper resort in 1864 when hotelier Johannes Badrutt made a wager with four British summer visitors. They found it delightful, and this wager not only established St. Moritz as a ski resort but also launched the Alps as a premier destination for vacationing skiers. Over the years, St. Moritz has hosted significant events such as the first European Ice-Skating Championships (1882), the first golf tournament held in the Alps (1889), a horse race on snow (1906), and Switzerland’s first ski school (1929). It has twice hosted the Winter Olympics (1928 and 1948), over 30 Bobsled World Championships, four Alpine Ski World Championships, and numerous Engadin Ski Marathons. Moritz’s winter sports heritage exemplifies the Swiss sporting vacation ethos. The resort has even found its way into popular culture, featuring in Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Man Who Knew Too Much, ” the James Bond films “Goldfinger” and “For Your Eyes Only, ” and the novel “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” by Ian Fleming. Peter Sarstedt also referenced St. Moritz in his song Where Do You Go To (My Lovely)? Conveying its haute monde elegance. Beyond skiing, golf, and leisure pursuits, St. Moritz supports the arts with annual events like the St. Moritz Art Masters, which brings together artists, collectors, experts, and critics for exhibitions, seminars, and walks. Montegrappa’s collection, from which your pen has been selected, is a limited edition of 1856 pieces, reflecting the altitude of St. The collection consists of three themed designs, each capturing the essence of this iconic destination. Historic posters extolling the luxury of Switzerland’s most famous resort were carefully recreated by the artist, Lorena Straffi, for the third edition of the St. The pen is made from blue celluloid and sterling silver, and has a medium 18k gold nib.
