An undisputed classic of modern pen design, and one of Montblanc’s most sought after writing instruments. The highly sophisticated art of skeletonising (a precise craft by which parts of a writing instrument are exposed) transforms it into a trasparent work of art. To celebrate the 75th birthday of the Meisterstück (Masterpiece in English, Chef-d’œuvre in French or Capolavoro in Italian), in 1999 Montblanc’s master craftsmen created the first fountain pen in history to use this delicate techinque: the iconic Montblanc Meisterstück Skeleton Limited Edition 75, which caused a sensation all around the world (we currently have this important reference in our company stock so if you want to learn more on this iconic museum piece, please have a look to this page) . This Special Theme Skeleton Edition, launched in 2001, is a tribute, true to the last detail, to the first-ever skeletonised fountain pen (year 1999). The transparent, platinum-plated barrel artistically reveals the delicate workings of this much sought-after collectors’ item. The cap is decorated by a Montblanc star in shimmering mother-of-pearl and the ruthenium-plated 18-cts gold nib captures the eye with its delicate hand engravings. One of only 333 pieces issued. Scarce.
