Piet Mondrian is a famous 20th century Dutch painter. Mondrian took interest in impressionist techniques, and, like his countryman, Vincent Van Gogh, he used pure, glowing colors. Later on, he transitioned toward a pointillist cubist styles, as well as other abstract compositional structures.

In honor and to commemorate his legacy Monteverde® is proud to introduce the Regatta Mondrian Limited Edition 921: A writing instrument that elegantly intertwines the maritime grace with the profound artistic legacy of Mondrian. With meticulous intention, this pen's design pays homage to the rhythm and hues that defined Mondrian's iconic abstract paintings in the 1920s. Drawing inspiration from the fluid lines of sailing, the pen's form is a tribute to the artist's pursuit of a distinct abstract art, separate from the conventions of Cubism and Futurism.

In the spirit of Mondrian's palette, the Regatta Mondrian Limited Edition 921 embraces the limited colors of white, black, gray, and the primary hues.

Its composition, marked by thick horizontal and vertical lines, meticulously outlines the color rectangles, creating a symphony of rhythms that mirror the cadence of contemporary life. Just as Mondrian's compositions remained asymmetrical and dynamic, so does this pen's aesthetic—a dominant red block balanced by smaller yellow, blue, gray, and white segments, echoing the very essence of Mondrian's brilliant works.

This limited edition is highlighted by the magnetic closure system that adds a touch of practicality, ensuring effortless capping and posting. While the balanced weight elevates the writing experience of each writing instrument. Notably, enthusiasts of fountain pens will find an included ink bottle to extend their creative journey. A limited production of 921 pens aligns with Mondrian's philosophy of asymmetrical equilibrium, offering a contemplative balance.

The fountain pen boasts a premium stainless steel nib, made in Germany by JoWo, the preeminent nib manufacturer in the world. Offered in six distinctive point sizes: Extra fine, Fine, Medium, Broad, Stub and Omniflex; the pen can easily be filled via standard international ink cartridges or high quality threaded piston converter (Included).

The Monteverde Regatta Mondrian fountain pen is presented in a deluxe gift box, accompanied by a 30ml themed bottle of black ink. Ink cartridges and a converter are also included.

Our note about the JoWo Omniflex nib: This flex nib will allow you to experience more bounce and softness than writing with conventional nibs. You can achieve some line variation with a little additional downward pressure, to a point. We recommend flexing the nib to about twice the line width that you would see without using any pressure. Please take care to avoid pressing too hard on the nib, as over-flexing could prevent the tines from returning fully to their original position and decrease or stop your ink flow.

Monteverde Regatta Fountain Pen - Mondrian (Limited Edition)

Absolutely love my Monteverde Regatta Fountain Pen - Mondrian (Limited Edition) Apart from the side effects of finding myself humming the theme tune to The Partridge Family! Very comfortable to hold and write with even for longer periods. I'm now hooked on the Regatta range. It definitely won't be my last.

Loved the looks, not the sealing

This pen has the record for shortest lifespan in my collection.Had it with the omniflex nib, and this thing was drying out just over night. Tried different inks (monteverde and noodler's black), but it was the same thing. It's gorgeous to look at, but I want it to write too.

Gorgeous!

I've only used it a bit so far. It's one of my pens for March, so it will be put to work soon. The omniflex nib is becoming a favorite of mine. It's a well balanced pen and my only complaint is that it is bit thinner than I usually prefer, but still wonderful. I don't tend to write for extended periods, so it's fine for my daily note taking. I had to get the Mondrian because the artist has special meaning to me. His art is amazing! I've inked it with TWSBI orange to match h the orange in the pen. I am not an orange person, but it just fits!

A work of art!

Beautiful pen and box, love the magnetic cap. The metal body is on the heavier side, but pen is balanced. I got the stub nib which writes fabulously, it does seem like a thicker line than 1.1 stubs from other brands.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this pen with ink cartridges? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A cartridge is small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write!

This pen uses standard international ink cartridges, a common size which is available in many colors from various brands.

You can learn more about how to actually install an ink cartridge on our blog, or in this video tutorial:

How do I use a converter? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A converter goes in the place of where the ink cartridge would normally go. From there, you can fill your fountain pen from bottled ink.

A converter is a detachable and refillable ink reservoir that allows you to use bottled ink in a cartridge-accepting pen. Typically you will install the converter into the grip section, dip the nib/feed into the ink, and twist or pull the converter knob to draw ink into the converter.

We have a great video showing how to use a converter here:

How do I clean this fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It mostly comes down to flushing out the pen with water, and sometimes a little bit of pen flush if the ink is really stuck. 

We put together a blog post with step-by-step instructions, or you can watch the video here:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

For even more information about fountain pen cleaning, check out our Fountain Pen 101 video blog post.
