To be dragon-like is to possess intelligence, ambition and charisma. Crafted in the “Year of the Dragon,” the Montegrappa Imperial & Regal Collection intersects Eastern mythology with European writing tradition to offer performance verging on the supernatural. With its fusion of precious metals, stones and craftsmanship, all the essential elements of flow are put within one’s grasp. The Imperial pens showcase absolute power over the elements — fire, wood, water, earth and metal —  represented by the dragon’s claws. The Regal collection offers a more modern take by marrying Bauhaus-inspired aesthetics with the robust quality Montegrappa is known for, available in a choice of the twilight shimmer of royal purple with yellow gold, or striking polished steel combined with tempestuous laguna blue, lush mamba green or the cerulean depths of indigo. All elevate note-taking to a sublime new level; Montegrappa.com.
