The Vega Collection brings a splash of color to Montverde’s flagship Invincia collection. The solid brass barrels and heavy lacquer coating with green splatter are accented with gun metal trim, making each pen fun and functional. 

Made from solid brass and assembled by hand, this mid-weight pen is ergonomically balanced and is comfortable to hold, perfect for daily writing. It fills via standard international ink cartridges or converter (included).

This fountain pen is offered with your choice of a reliable, smooth-writing German made JoWo #6 black steel nib in extra-fine, fine, medium, 1.1mm stub or the new JoWo Omniflex flexible steel nib for variation in line width. With five nib options, you are sure to find a selection to fit your handwriting style.

Our note about the JoWo Omniflex nib: This flex nib will allow you to experience more bounce and softness than writing with conventional nibs. You can achieve some line variation with a little additional downward pressure, to a point. We recommend flexing the nib to about twice the line width that you would see without using any pressure. Please take care to avoid pressing too hard on the nib, as over-flexing could prevent the tines from returning fully to their original position and decrease or stop your ink flow.

Comes with a soundtrack!

This is an okay pen. It is all-metal, and so a bit heavy. It is beautiful to look at. And it sings me the song of its people whenever I use it. Squeaks its little inky heart out. I’ve used it with a Laban ink (Athena) as well as an Herbin ink (something green and French)—both of the inks were a bit on the dry side, and maybe this pen is not attracted to wisdom in the first case, and finds France odious in the second. I do not know, but this pen virtually shrieks in protest when I put it to paper. I might try to soothe its tender sensibilities with a calming, soothing Kon Peki. Kon Peki—the blue Pepto-Bismol of the fountain pen world. In the meantime, Invincia will continue its whiney conversation with me, yowling like a cat in heat every time I write with it. Three stars.

Very nice pen for the price

This pen is very pleasant looking. The fit and finish is great. There is a bit of heft to the pen. The cap posts nicely and doesn't through off the balance when writing. The flow rate is perfect with the medium nib. I really have nothing bad to say about it.

Haven’t used it yet. It’s sitting in my desk looking great though

Pleasant, hefty writer

I really like this pen, the appearance and the way it writes. It looks great with the gunmetal and color highlights, if a little understated. Really pleasant writer. The ink comes out nice and easy, and it's a very smooth writing experience. I enjoy the heft from so much metal, but it's not really a heavy pen. Overall, a great value and a good, smooth writer.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this pen with ink cartridges? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A cartridge is small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write!

This pen uses standard international ink cartridges, a common size which is available in many colors from various brands.

You can learn more about how to actually install an ink cartridge on our blog, or in this video tutorial:

How do I use a converter? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A converter goes in the place of where the ink cartridge would normally go. From there, you can fill your fountain pen from bottled ink.

A converter is a detachable and refillable ink reservoir that allows you to use bottled ink in a cartridge-accepting pen. Typically you will install the converter into the grip section, dip the nib/feed into the ink, and twist or pull the converter knob to draw ink into the converter.

We have a great video showing how to use a converter here:

How do I clean this fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It mostly comes down to flushing out the pen with water, and sometimes a little bit of pen flush if the ink is really stuck. 

We put together a blog post with step-by-step instructions, or you can watch the video here:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

For even more information about fountain pen cleaning, check out our Fountain Pen 101 video blog post.
