" Heritage Egyptomania Special Edition Collection. In the beginning of the 20th century, a new era of Egyptomania overwhelmed the world of decorative arts and intellectual life, the result of the extensive study of ancient Egyptian remains, culture, and spiritual life. This new collection is inspired by the octagonally-shaped Montblanc "Egyptian" fountain pens from the 1920s. On the cap of each Heritage Egyptomania pen is an engraved cartouche containing hieroglyphics translating to the word "Montblanc", or "white stone mountain". The unique clip features a sculpted scarab beetle at the tip. The octagonal writing instruments are offered in the Heritage series in precious black resin with vintage gold-coated fittings, and the Heritage Doue series in black precious resin and metal trim with vintage platinum coating. The Doue metal overlays are engraved with authentic hieroglyphics. The Egyptomania fountain pen is enhanced with a solid gold nib engraved with a scarab design, available in Fine and Medium width. The Egyptomania collection also includes a rollerball, ballpoint pen, Egyptomania notebook and Egyptomania Green Ink. Both styles of the fountain pen are piston-filled.
