Montegrappa Marks 60 Years of the Lamborghini Miura With Special Pen
The writing instrument you didn’t know you needed captures the Miura’s bold spirit & unique design…
Lamborghini Miura enthusiasts can now write a love letter to their favorite vehicle with a special pen designed by Montegrappa.
A recent collaboration between Montegrappa and Automobili Lamborghini celebrates the world’s first super sports car with the Automobili Lamborghini Miura—a limited edition of 60 fountain pens and rollerballs that captures the bold spirit and unmistakable design of the legendary model in a supremely detailed writing instrument.
Reinterpreting the car’s original design, the silhouette of the pen recalls the flowing lines of the car’s bodywork—from the end cap inspired by the engine’s Venetian grille and the metal fittings to references to the iconic slats on the clip and cap band. The shield of the Sant’ Agata Bolognese marque seals its prestigious and elegant character.
INSPIRED BY A HEADLIGHT
The pen cap incorporates what designers call “the ultimate detail of excellence”—the retractable headlight, crafted in rock crystal and resting on an engraved base with the original texture, reproduced in miniature through a sophisticated tactile pushbutton mechanism that recreates the Miura’s famous headlight movement.
Meanwhile, the 18K gold nib with ruthenium plating, engraved with the Automobili Lamborghini shield and paired with an ebonite feeder, delivers a smooth and precise writing experience.
Available in the three colors inspired by the original car configurations—Fly Yellow, Miura Green and Black—and presented in custom packaging inspired by the interiors of the super sports car, Automobili Lamborghini Miura is “dedicated to collectors, enthusiasts and connoisseurs seeking an object in which writing and speed share the same unmistakable signature of craftsmanship. Not a simple tribute to an extraordinary automobile, but a celebration of Italian creativity, where mechanics become emotion and design becomes legend,” officials stated in a press release announcing the new offering.
The Automobili Lamborghini Miura pen is available at select retailers and on online.
