Monteverde Ritma Fountain Pen - Brushed Stainless Steel
The Monteverde Ritma™ collection is inspired by the minimalist movement of the 1960’s and 70’s, where clean lines, straightforward designs and beautiful colors within work were the most prominent.
Crafted entirely from stainless steel, this Ritma™ features a finely brushed texture that delivers both visual depth and a tactile experience in hand. The subtle grain of the metal catches light effortlessly, creating a soft, sophisticated silver tone that feels timeless rather than flashy. The finish also enhances durability while helping maintain a clean, consistent appearance through everyday use.
From the magnetic cap top to the back post, the streamlined silhouette remains uninterrupted, offering a perfectly balanced, substantial feel for those who appreciate a heavier writing instrument. Polished nickel-plated accents provide a striking yet refined contrast against the brushed steel body, reinforcing its modern, architectural presence.
Nickel plating introduces a brighter, more luminous finish compared to darker coatings, lending the pen a crisp, elevated aesthetic. Known for its excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, nickel enhances both the longevity and resilience of the pen’s trim components. Its smooth, reflective surface not only complements the brushed steel but also resists tarnishing, ensuring that the accents retain their clarity and brilliance over time.
It comes with a standard international converter and an ink cartridge. It is offered with your choice of a reliable, smooth-writing German made JoWo #6 silver steel nib in extra-fine, fine, medium, broad, 1.1mm stub or the JoWo Omniflex flexible steel nib for variation in line width. With six nib options, you are sure to find a selection to fit your handwriting style.
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.
