Montegrappa Elmo 02 2024 Series - Rollerball
Montegrappa Elmo 02 2024 Series - Rollerball
Elmo 02 exemplifies a time when portable writing instruments were fighting for widespread adoption. Resourcefulness and creativity were needed to meet contemporary tastes and budgets.
Period-correct flourishes are found in shallow conical ends, a ‘ski-jump’ grip section and a brass ‘cummerbund’ clip design that channels the panache of the 1920s – with traces of early art deco.
A suite of sophisticated marbled finishes offers expressive alternatives to the formality of standard jet black. Swirling textures are created randomly during blending, making every example unique.
‘Elmo’-brand pens were often recognised for their stylistic and industrial inventiveness. Built in our present-day manufactory, their evolution helped inform more than a century of Montegrappa style.
Montegrappa’s minimalist 1920s reissue—the Elmo —is one of the most exciting entry-level pens released in recent years. The translucent resins created for the Elmo Ambiente provide a window onto the mechanics of writing – and a vision of alternative production. Its recycled finish is disarmingly honest – offering a new intimacy, and a reminder that everything we touch is part of a larger narrative. Our collaboration with artisanal studio, Smile Plastics, revisits a 1920s classic – and rethinks it for the 2020s.
Symmetrical proportions, nostalgic no-nonsense looks, and a robust build have established the Elmo as a taste of sleek vintage minimalism to catch the attention of the design-minded. Since its release in February 2019, the Elmo has quickly ranked among Montegrappa's most popular starter pens, making fans of those who love well-crafted, premium stationery, with a true vintage pedigree.
The Elmo arrives in Montegrappa's standard blue gift box.
