December 2009 - Montblanc presents the most precious writing instrument in the world, a breathtaking jewellery piece that reflects the pinnacle of Montblanc's craftsmanship, the Montblanc "Emerald Fountain Pen" - to be worth 1,5 MIO USD. With this outstanding masterpiece of craftsmanship Montblanc shows its unconditional dedication and passion to the handwritten word and incorporates its longtime expertise and tradition of flawless craftsmanship.

 

The exceptional writing instrument is an extraordinary masterpiece of the jeweller's art with a rhodium-plated 18 K gold-nib incorporating true jewellery that happens to write. Precious stones, diamonds and emeralds, decorate the sparkling fountain pen in a precious channel setting - an absolutely unique work of art. The coronation of this sparkling fountain pen is the famous and distinguished Montblanc diamond in the top of the cap. The variation of this marvellous writing instrument is limited to one piece worldwide with an unestimable value among Montblanc connoisseurs worldwide.

I was going to order it, but they wanted $14.95 for shipping and that's just a ripoff.

Would you ink it?

It produces its own ink inside and the color changes with the mood it's in.

Show respect. It has feelings.

too blingy for me

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

the "that happens to write"-thing sounds intriguing to me.

will it do it on occasion or just irregularly?

Call me a cynic and a party pooper, but if Montblanc truly wanted to show "unconditional dedication and passion to the handwritten word", they'd also make school pens, and pens that cost less than a mortgage payment.

Looks more like a dill pickle to me.

Or perhaps a striped cucumber or zucchini?

Aw ... you guys are just "sour grapes". You'll be SO jealous five years from now when I pick this up used on Ebay for $20 and $4 shipping.

But wait! If you order now, they will include a personalized feather duster and 3 Ginzu knives. Order before midnight and they double the offer - just pay seperate shipping and handling. Ink? If you order any three bottles of ink they will throw in an autographed album of Sweating to the Oldies and a Richard Simmons pair of stripped short shorts. When you charge that kind of money for a pen, you can offer a lot of premiums. /Craig

Impossible. Pickles gain value with time.

To be honest (I am every now and again) I really did think of a cucumber first, but then I didn't want to overdo things.

Is Mont Blanc living in the Delta Quadrant now, or have they not been reading the Business Page in the paper for the past 2 years?

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
