Self-assured elegance and incisive performance converge on Tiger by Montegrappa. Crafted entirely from sterling silver, subtle variations of depth bring the king of beasts vividly to life. Created using engraving techniques perfected over more than a century, Tiger combines artisanal complexity with sartorial simplicity: reflecting the confident, outgoing style of those born in the Year of the Tiger.

A perpetual tiger-stripe camouflage envelops barrel and cap A protector against evil, the watchful tiger is realised in startling, high-relief detail. His striped tail channels boldness through a custom-cast pocket-clip Diamond-engraved knurling evokes the mountainous terrain that connects the habitat of the South China tiger to Montegrappa’s alpine home and legacy of geometric precision Released to mark the Year of the Tiger, this small-batch silhouette is available as a limited edition of only 100 pieces

Italy's first pen producer, Montegrappa, began manufacturing pens in 1912 in its factory in Bassano del Grappa in Italy. Utilizing natural celluloid and precious metals, Montegrappa combines traditional methods such as die-casting with more recent innovations as low-relief engraving to form their precious art objects. Whether Montegrappa use colours reminiscent of the master painters or ornamentation suggestive of Baroque palaces, the Italian heritage and romance is infused into each product.
