Montblanc
Meisterstück Le Grand Pen
The definitive instrument of power and intellect. The Meisterstück 149 is not merely a pen; it is a treaty signer, a legacy maker, and a symbol of authority. Crafted from deep black precious resin and adorned with gold-coated details, it offers a writing experience that is as substantial as the words it records. Ideally suited for the executive who values the weight of tradition.

Design Legacy
Why it endures
Since its introduction in 1924, the Meisterstück has been the chosen instrument of presidents and poets alike. President Kennedy famously lent his to Chancellor Adenauer when the latter could not find a pen to sign the Golden Book of Cologne. The nib is engraved with "4810"—the height of Mont Blanc in meters—symbolizing the brand's dedication to reaching the summit of European craftsmanship.
Timelessness
In an era of fleeting digital messages, the fountain pen demands intention. Its cigar-shaped profile and "precious resin" body have remained virtually unchanged for a century, serving as a permanent anchor in a disposable world.
Did You Know?
The number "149" decodes the pen's DNA: "1" signifies the Meisterstück tier, "4" represents the piston-filling mechanism, and "9" denotes the large #9 nib size.
