Celluloid is a flexible material highly favored by pen manufacturers due to its properties such as high quality, a pleasant tactile feel, and vibrant colors with intriguing textures. Montegrappa, the Italian writing instrument brand that has been active since 1912, seeks to take this traditional material and adapt it for the 21st century. The Celluloid Masters Arte Turquoise, a writing instrument resulting from the brand’s collaboration with Kenro, a company from the photography industry, is made of hand-crafted Italian celluloid in a mesmerizing turquoise hue (the collection also includes pens in zebra and gray tones). The pen incorporates other luxurious materials: for example, the decoration is made of sterling silver, and the nib is crafted from 18-carat pure gold with a rhodium coating. The company offers various customization options for the pen, including nib size. Price: €1,870.
