Montblanc Heritage 1912 Fountain Pen – Serviced by Montblanc September 2021

Thanks very much for looking at this wonderful Montblanc Heritage Collection 1912 Fountain Pen, which comes with its Montblanc presentation box (including outer) and stamped service guide – confirming first purchase in 13th May 2017. The pen has been very lightly used and is presented in overall excellent condition – there are some very light marks on one point around the barrel, where the cap has been screwed on (often found on the 1912 pens).

It’s just returned from being serviced by Montblanc in Hamburg, where the internal mechanism was replaced. There are a couple of tiny marks on the mother-of-pearl lacquered snowcap (under the clear resin above it) and these are shown in the photos – they’re only visible under certain light conditions.

The 1912 pens have now been discontinued and have a very loyal following! Modelled on one of the first Simplo safety filler pens, these have a fantastic two stage mechanism, where you can twist to hide or reveal the nib, then gently pull the piston cone and turn to active the piston filling mechanism.

The 14k medium nib is a delight and these Heritage nibs have a bounce to them which make them very enjoyable to write with.

The mother-of-pearl lacquered snowcap emblem sits proudly atop the pen.

The important details are as follows…

Condition: Excellent

Boxes: Montblanc

Nib: Medium

With every pen that we sell we provide a card that includes the manufacturer, model, serial / limitation number and date it was purchased from us. We do this because our customers like to have documentation showing that it’s been purchased from a trusted seller. As the Financial Times said recently in their How To Spend It publication – “izods is an e-cache of ultra fine fountain pens”.
