Montblanc highlights its unique craftsmanship with a new edition of the iconic Meisterstück writing instrument featuring its new curved nib.
An icon of writing culture, the Montblanc Meisterstück writing instrument is instantly recognizable by its shape, proportions and its precious black resin and gold fittings. However, it’s the fountain pen’s nib (referred to by the brand as the soul of every Montblanc writing instrument) that makes it truly stand out and now those clever Swiss have taken things to a new level with a new curved nib.

Ground at a 45-angle, the Montblanc curved nib is particularly suited for intricate Chinese, Japanese and Korean calligraphy as well as for sketching and drawing designs. A form of self-expression and creativity, the art of calligraphy requires the versatility of a nib that allows for a variety of line widths, shapes and styles to enhance the beauty of the handwriting.
Depending on the angle of the curved nib on the paper, the calligrapher can achieve wide horizontal lines and thin vertical lines while also turning the nib upside down for a fine line suited for detailed drawing.
