Bottom Shelf: This pen has been gently used, but is otherwise in great shape. While every effort to clean these pens is made, you might see residual ink or water, as they are not brand new. All Bottom Shelf sales are final.

Introducing the new Monteverde MP1 Collectible, the first piston fountain pen in the Monteverde collection, where innovation, elegance, and advanced technology converge in a meticulously crafted design. Released as part of Monteverde's 25th-anniversary celebration, the MP1 Collectible represents a significant leap forward in the piston-fill fountain pen category, combining luxury with satisfying performance.

One of the standout features of the Monteverde MP1 Collectible is its grip section and the radiant, crystal-clear barrel, which are crafted as a single transparent piece. This one-piece construction not only enhances the pen's durability and sleek aesthetic but also provides a smooth, uninterrupted surface that feels natural and comfortable in the hand. The continuous design ensures a perfect balance and a secure grip, making the pen exceptionally comfortable during extended writing sessions.

The pen's design is further distinguished by its durable anodized aluminum cap in olive green, adorned with finely etched lines that add visual appeal. The anodized blind cap, equipped with a lock-in piston mechanism, ensures that the piston remains in place, preventing accidental twisting or ink spills, adding to the pen's overall reliability and functionality.

At the core of the Monteverde MP1 Collectible is a finely crafted #6 premium German-made JoWo nib, renowned for its precision and silky smooth writing experience. The silver steel nibs are offered in six distinctive point sizes: fine, medium, 1.1mm stub, and finally the Omniflex flexible steel nib for variation in line width.

Paired with an expertly designed plasma-treated feed system, the pen delivers consistent, reliable ink flow, ensuring rich and even lines without skipping or blotting, regardless of your writing speed or style.

The pen features an integrated piston-filling mechanism that allows for effortless ink refilling directly from an ink bottle, eliminating the need for cartridges and making the pen eco-friendly. The large 2ml ink reservoir, made of polycarbonate resin, ensures ample ink capacity, reducing the need for frequent refilling and maing it perfect for extensive writing sessions.

The Monteverde MP1 Collectible pen is beautifully packaged within a sleek, minimalist gift box, perfect for the discerning individual who appreciates both elegance and functionality. Assembled at the Monteverde headquarters in California, the MP1 Collectible adheres to the highest standards of production and quality control, a testament to the brand's 25-year legacy of precise craftsmanship.

With its lightweight yet durable construction, consistent ink flow, and elegant design, the Monteverde MP1 Collectible is a must-have for writing enthusiasts and pen collectors alike, offering a significant edge in features and value compared to its competitors. The Monteverde MP1 Collectible is an excellent choice for those seeking a professionally advanced piston-fill fountain pen that embodies reliability, durability, and user-friendly design.

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.
