Amor Nobile

In the vast landscape of various writing instruments, Amor Nobile, brings to us a gently curated collection of fountain pens with a touch of nostalgia. The oldest pen here is over 90 years old and it remains in the hands of the same family, of its first and original owner for most of its life. It survived the dangerous days of WWII and the Cold War. It is still fully useable at present. Thank you very much Pelikan for your classic Model 100. In fact, there are other pens here, some of them first released over 50 years ago, but still in daily use, as well as some of them remaining in current modern production. Amor Nobile pens will survive hopefully, as curated here forever, as these classics are still in high demand in the hands of a new generation. This creates the phenomenon of lasting value, not only to collectors but also to anyone who admires purity of style, highest quality, a history of writing instruments and its provenance. We gave the spotlight to the icons of the past, still surviving and to some others we believe, can become icons soon or in the near future.
