Mont Blanc was founded by a Hamburg stationer in 1906. Originally known as the Simplo Filler Pen company, they changed this to Mont Blanc in 1911. They have been producing quality writing instruments ever since. Since the start Mont Blanc has been producing a lot of the world’s most fabulous writing instruments. Without question, the most favored in this range of writing instruments are those in the Meisterstuck line. Meisterstuck is German for masterpiece and no one can argue that this title doesn’t suit these wonderful pens. Each pen made by the company over the years is a masterpiece, without exception. Mont Blanc have obviously gone on to establish new products in their range, but so far none of them has overtaken the iconic status of the Meisterstuck. Some say that the most wonderful feature of the Meisterstuck pen is the central inscribed ring, found within two plain, thinner equidistant rings and normally made of gold. Wonderful attention to detail in the production process makes Mont Blanc the most luxurious of fountain pens and famous in the world of pens. This brings us to the next generation of writing instruments produced by Mont Blanc, led by the StarWalker range. Coming with a modern name with styling to match, the Mont Blanc StarWalker still keeps to the tradition of making writing instruments of wonderful and flawless design with true master craftsmanship. The StarWalker pen collection, as with other ranges, comprises a fountain pen, ballpoint pen, mechanical pencil and a rollerball pen. These new pens by Mont Blanc are innovative, stylish, practical and very easy in use. Take it in your hand and you’ll never forget how easy it is to write with, how it smoothly flows over the paper. The StarWalker is perfectly constructed and is a real treat to use. As with all Mont Blanc writing instruments, the desire for writing is insatiable.
