Desiderio – Italian for “Desire”
Desiderio represents deeply-felt desire, the longing one has for the target or their ardor. It may be the need to perform a particular function or role, or having a wish come true. It is a most powerful force, one that fuels great art, heroic achievement, herculean effort. But it is also personal, an inner drive that craves fulfillment or satisfaction. When it flows from the mind of the musician, it can transcribe the notes to an epic symphony or a plaintive ballad. For another, it will yield a love letter that will scorch the page, or a poem that will wrench a response from the heart of the reader.
Embodying this in a pen is a challenge that has produced a series of writing instruments imbued with mystery, for it is impossible to explain the power of sheer desire. Desiderio writing instruments are made in pearlised bi-colour resin, the user choosing from red and black, grey and blue or beige and brown, with trim in sterling silver and a filigree-cut 18kt gold nib.
No two are alike, just as all desires are unique, for the material that forms each cap and body possesses its own swirling pattern.
Montegrappa’s signature octagon accents the top, while the rolling ball at the end of the pocket clip and a thin line around the cap are coloured to contrast with the body. Upon removing the cap, the second colour is also revealed at the writing end of the fountain or the rollerball pen.
Desire reaches fulfilment with a choice of four writing tools. Desiderio is offered as a fountain pen in both cartridge and converter-fed form, a rollerball pen, a ballpoint pen and a mechanical pencil. Each exists to express your yearnings and aspirations.

A surrealist masterpiece, dedicated to legendary Salvador Dali
The third creative genius in Montegrappa's roster of peerless artists is Salvador Dali. A visionary who personified surrealism, he was also a writer, filmmaker and designer. Blessed not only with technical skills talent but also with a unique visual sense, Dali produced a number of significant works so original and startling that they have entered the global consciousness. Among the most famous is his 1944 work, Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee Around a Pomegranate a Second Before Awakening, which has inspired Montegrappa's designers to devise a pen worthy of Dali's vision. It was the first of a number of works to contain a form, which would become a recurring image in Dali's work: The Space Elephant.
Montegrappa's designers have transformed these noble beasts, portrayed with long, multi-jointed, almost invisible legs of desire along with obelisks on their backs into miniature manifestations of Dali's art. On the Dali pen, the elephant embraces a barrel of Mediterranean blue celluloid for the silver edition, or in malachite green for the solid gold version. When the pen is opened, a quote from the autobiography, The Secret Life of Salvador Dali, is inscribed on the inner barrel. Montegrappa will issue only 1,000 sterling silver fountain pens and 989 rollerball pens, denoting 1989 the year that Dali died. 19 solid gold rollerball pens and 61 fountain pens will represent the year he created the 1961 jewellery, The Space Elephant.
The pens are packaged, appropriately, in an egg-shaped container, in recognition of another Dali-esque image. For the artist, the egg symbolised hope and love.

To realise the aesthetic of Apparition of Face and Fruit-Dish on a Beach in a pen, Montegrappa's artisans used pearl-grey resin with the trim representing the elongated face and the fruit, the cap graced with Dali's signature.

The Salvador Dali Surrealista is a limited edition consisting of 1,000 fountain pens and 938 rollerballs with sterling silver trim, and 19 rollerballs and 38 fountain pens with solid 18k gold trim. 1938 commemorates the date the painting was made, which is co-incidentally the date when Leopoldo Tullio Aquila, father of Gianfranco Aquila, Montegrappa's Chairman, and the grandfather of Montegrappa's CEO Giuseppe Aquila, started his collaboration with Montegrappa.

The first pen in the Cult series designed by Sylvester Stallone.
Part of the new Cult series, Sylvester Stallone's Chaos pen is fashioned from precious materials and produced in limited numbers. The body of the pen is made of black pearlised celluloid with overlays in sterling silver or solid 18K gold. Overlays are finished by hand by Montegrappa's skilled craftsmen and feature an antiqued finish with accents in translucent enamel, in reds and yellows the colors of fire.
The design is characterized by the juxtaposition of life and death; the former represented by the early forms of life on Earth: reptiles (such as snakes and lizards), the latter by the skull. And though it is not as mighty as the pen itself, the ultimate defining detail, bearing both a fist and a skull, is the pen's clip in the form of a sword.
