The Elmo 02 collection was created to expand the range of regular Montegrappa writing instruments.

Like the popular Elmo 01 collection, it is distinguished by attention to detail and the highest level of design elaboration.

Once again, the Montegrappa archive from the beginning of the last century became a source of inspiration for the design of the collection.

The vintage conical silhouette of the body is complemented by a wide conical top on the cap.

The barrel and cap are made from acrylic resin and come in two unique colour options as an alternative to the standard black.

The Sorapis model adds cobalt blue acrylic to a white and black base, while the Asiago focuses on red and olive tones.

The textures generated when mixing are random, making each pen completely unique.

The feathers are made of alloy steel.

The cap clip is made in a 1920’s style from fluted brass.

The Elmo 02 collection is available in fountain pen, rollerball and ballpoint pen versions.

Fountain pens are equipped with a 6 mm alloy steel nib with a cartridge and converter.

Elmo is a touchstone in Montegrappa’s formative years and a name synonymous with the democratization of writing in Italy. As technical director of the country’s first fountain pen factory, Heinrich Helm was tasked with making its products available for mass consumption. A century later, Helm’s minimalist tapered tips are still an elegant alternative to expensive metals, leaving room for the bare essentials – good writing.

An honest character and impeccable appearance were the hallmarks of many of the early Elmo designs that populated the Italian offices and classrooms of the 1920s. Archival designs from co-founder Heinrich “Elmo” Helm provide a blueprint for a silhouette that minimizes the use of metal parts without sacrificing decorative flair. The delicate knurled brass clamp is a reminder that great design is timeless.

The body of the Montegrappa Elmo 02 fountain pen is made of precious black resin, the finishing elements are steel. The stainless steel nib is decorated with an engraving in the form of the brand’s signature pattern. The removable cap on the thread has the inscription “Montegrappa”. The pen is filled with Montegrappa ink cartridges or ink from the bottle using a converter (included). Supplied in a branded gift box.
