The world most expensive pen!!!!
1. Mystery Masterpiece:World’s Most Expensive Pen
It is the world’s most expensive pen. The luxury houses of Van Cleef & Arpels and Montblanc are the proud makers of this breathtaking writing instrument named the Mystery Masterpiece, which was launched on the February 2006 as a part of their centenary celebrations.
It has an amazing body made of white gold, adorned with rubies, sapphires, or emeralds and accented by diamonds. All three types are amazing and only three of each kind have been launched making it a total of nine pens to be sold worldwide. Each pen has 840 diamonds and more than 20 carats of gemstones set in a Van Cleef & Arpels patented “Mystery Setting”. This conceals gemstone settings and as a result an illusion is created which shows the emeralds, rubies and sapphires to be floating on its surface.There are pens, and then there are writing instruments. This instrument is the world’s most expensive ballpoint pen with 840 diamonds and 20 carats in gemstones. It’s made by Mont Blanc and Van Cleef & Arpels. Each pen takes one and a half years to make, and only nine will be made. Each pen will cost $730,000. No word as to payment plans.
2. Montegrappa's Peace Pen is the world's most expensive writing implement
A legend in the world of stationery, Montegrappa have been crafting high-quality pens since 1912, building a reputation not simply for the superb performance of their products, but also their artistic beauty (Ernest Hemingway was an early fan, with Michael Schumacher and Sylvester Stallone among the company's current celebrity customers).
"Montegrappa are one of the truly great pen brands," explains Laura Chandler, editor of U.S.-based Pen World magazine.
"They are renowned for wonderfully crafted, luxury pens that not only write beautifully, but look beautiful as well."
If they have long been at the very pinnacle of the pen industry, however, Montegrappa exceeded even their own exacting standards in 2004 when their craftsmen produced what is widely considered to be not only the most opulent, but also by some way the most expensive pen in the world -- the $1,187,000 (£679,000) Peace Pen.
