My sweet, beautiful Montegrappa Micra. Marbly resin with sterling silver accents, this pen is stunning. I really dig the patina that has developed over the years. I bought it new at a pen show (when? I cannot remember), used it regularly for a bit, and then placed it in a drawer with other pens.
Why would this pen sit so long unused? (Love the dog fur in my pictures?)
The pen measures around 4.5″(or around 5.75″ when posted).
The cap is a screw-to-post style. (Loooove this feature.)
Having sat for so long, I didn’t remember the model name of this pen. I had to research a bit and couldn’t help but read some of what I found at Fountain Pen Network.
After writing with it for a bit, I think I may have discovered why it sat for so long. It’s just not as comfortable as other expensive pens. The silver grip isn’t – grippy. It’s awkward, even. While the shape of the pen is faceted, the grip is smooth (though slightly concave) and feels – hard. I found myself with a total death grip and tired hand.
And the writing. I’m sure this is a matter of ink incompatibility (or a cleanliness issue).
Skipping . . .

One thing I would like to say is the fact that car insurance cancellation is a dreadful experience and if you’re doing the right things as being a driver you may not get one. Many people do receive the notice that they’ve been officially dumped by their particular insurance company and many have to struggle to get extra insurance after a cancellation. Inexpensive auto insurance rates usually are hard to get from a cancellation. Knowing the main reasons with regard to auto insurance termination can help drivers prevent burning off one of the most crucial privileges accessible. Thanks for the strategies shared through your blog.
