A beautifully crafted pen detailing the inscription of three ancient languages on The Rosetta Stone artefact exhibited at The British Museum. The cap band is also exquisitely engraved with Egyptian gods.

The pen is based on the style and shape of one of the most famous fountain pens ever made – the Onoto Magna of 1937 which is still acclaimed by many as the best fountain pen ever made – this pen has an engraved sterling silver cap band with the sterling silver Onoto Chevron clip, both burnished and oxidised.

Hold the Rosetta Stone Black Edition and you will marvel at its perfect balance and how tactile it feels – it is also one of the most robust pens on the market today, thanks to its durable, high-density acrylic composition.

The distinctive Onoto logo is carved into the burnished and oxidised sterling silver cap button, making it instantly recognisable, and a sterling silver barrel button finishes the overall luxury feel.

The Rosetta Stone Black Edition pen is available in a limited edition of 200.
