Montegrappa once again takes inspiration from the epic series “Lord of the Rings” carrying us around the fantasy realms of Middle-earth with a special archival reissue that elevates the traditional craftsmanship of the brand and celebrates the captivating narrative of J.R.R. Tolkien’s novel.
Comprising three versions of writing instruments: a fountain pen, a rollerball pen as well as a ballpoint pen, the collection offered in a small-batch exudes an antique flair while maintaining a modern Italian design.

A satin-black resin combined with ruthenium-tinted brass accents evoke the darkness that descends upon Middle-earth while the historical and heraldry marks adorning each pen bring us closer to the story of the precious ring. In fact, there’s a very detailed ancient map of Middle-earth encircling the cap, so one can form its Fellowship and set out on one’s own adventure through Tolkien’s iconic land of Middle-earth.

Perhaps the central motif which can also be seen as the innovative element of the collection is the Eye of Sauron applied in high-grade Super-LumiNova® enamel at the base of the clip. Unlike its role in Tolkien’s novel of tracking the ring-bearer Frodo Baggins’ paths, in the Italian brand’s vision, the Eye of Souron is designed to store light energy while you write, continuing its work long after you are done…

And here comes the most exciting detail, which I think Lord of the Rings fans will be most excited about: right below the cap’s finial there’s a removable ring – a faithful interpretation of the famous One Ring engraved with the Tengwar script and made of gilded brass, symbolises the powers of darkness.
And as tempting as it may be, remove it at your own risk.
