The Fountain Pen Collection

The Montblanc High Artistry pens we have collected along our journey are a limited edition series, regarded by many as the pinnacle of exquisite writing instruments.

The Scholars’ Legacy: A Showcase of Timeless Treasures

Welcome to our exquisite collection of over 100 rare and priceless fountain pens. Each pen is a masterpiece, embodying the rich history and unparalleled craftsmanship that Montblanc is renowned for. Our collection offers a journey through time, showcasing the evolution of writing instruments and celebrating the art of fine writing. Our collection is linked to the life’s work of our founder and curator, Russ W. Rosenzweig, who built the collection as an homage to industry he pioneered: expert witnesses.
