Masters of Art Homage to Henri Matisse Limited Edition 888 Fountain Pen

The Montblanc Masters of Art Homage to Henri Matisse Limited Edition 888 reflects a quiet dialogue between fine craftsmanship and modern artistic vision. It draws on Matisse’s exploration of colour, pattern, and form, translated into a writing instrument of balanced presence.

The cap and barrel echo the texture of a painted canvas, finished in deep red and blue lacquer with a soft sheen. Decorative details reference the traditional motifs seen in La Blouse Roumaine, giving rhythm to the surface. The handcrafted Au 750 solid gold nib is engraved with Matisse’s “Large Face (Mask)” drawing, a subtle tribute to his line work. The cap’s rounded shape recalls the sculptural quality of his later works.

A black onyx stone marks the cone, while the cap top features the Montblanc emblem in mother-of-pearl, framed by a solid gold ring. The clip, in black lacquer, follows an organic silhouette inspired by the artist’s cut-outs.

A composed and thoughtful piece, where art and writing meet with clarity and restraint.
