Masters at work: Gold nib crafting

To deliver a unique writing experience with a nib that perfectly complements an individual’s own gestures, the artisan works through 35 different steps, rolling, stamping and shaping the 18 karat gold nib with unflinching patience, before engraving it with the maison’s emblem and the number 4810, the height of the Mont Blanc in metres, symbolic of Montblanc’s quest to always reach new heights in craftsmanship.
