The power of numbers
From music to mathematics, nature to numerology, the number eight has fascinated minds scientific and spiritual for centuries. Extra Otto's gently bevelled edges and graceful taper provide feedback and control beyond simple cylindrical forms, while putting an end to undesirable rolling. Calculated craftsmanship ensures cap and barrel align perfectly every time
Towering presence
Reverence for octagonal forms has been a constant of Montegrappa’s oeuvre for generations. In 1915, the chapel tower overlooking Montegrappa’s Cà Erizzo estate inspired the owners of Italy’s first fountain pen manufactory to create the Reminiscence. The filigree motif detailed in our 18K gold nibs echoes this landmark design, and the culture of invention it fomented.
Subtly sensuous
Softly rounded edges and gently tapered form suggest effortless elegance, yet nothing could be further from the truth. Shaping Extra Otto requires craftsmanship of the highest order. Expert hand-carving makes it possible to enjoy its sensuous lines in finishes of celluloid, hardwood, mammoth ivory and marble – ingredients at your disposal on the pen world’s only customization platform.
Revivalist fusion
Connoisseur-grade materials and mechanical perfection are non-negotiable components of a design that recalls two landmark Italian styles. Made in 1915, the eight-sided Reminiscence was a pronouncement of Venetian manufacturing prowess, while the proportions of Extra 1930 are emblematic of a golden age. Their perfect fusion proves there are few substitutes for experience.
VIP: Very Important Pen
A handcrafted walnut presentation case gives Extra Otto the permanence and presence it deserves. Personalise your purchase with an optional owner's plaque, or by engraving your initials onto the cap band. Fountain pens are supplied with a bottle of fine Italian ink – also available for personal engraving. Ten days is all it takes to transport your creative vision from drawing board to desk.
