World's Most Expensive Pen - Aurora Diamante
Aurora’s Diamante

What better way is there to show your dedication to the (hand)written word than to own the world’s most expensive pen? Okay, there might be a few better ways to do so. In fact, the most expensive pen’s true purpose is likely to show off just how much money you make as the CEO of some recently bailed-out corporation.

Hey, at least it’s really good at showing off.

Diamante contains over 30 carats of diamonds and its creators, Aurora, aren’t shy about telling you it’s the only pen in the world to have so many. That’s why they make one every year.

The pen is topped with a diamond cabochon—a polished, not faceted, gem—and is further decorated with almost two thousand DeBeers-certified “4 C” gems on a solid platinum barrel. Even the nib is precious, being fashioned from 18kt gold.

The asking price for the most expensive pen in the world is not available to the public, but is suspected to be around US $1.28 million. The purchaser may have the Diamante personalized with their coat of arms, signature or portrait.

Montblanc, a fountain pen and luxury goods manufacturer, and Van Cleef & Arpels, a jewelry house, are the creators of the former most expensive pen, a writing instrument known as the Mystery Masterpiece. The unique work took over a year and a half to create by skilled artisans and if you hurry you can have your choice of three variations, set with 20 carats of sapphires, emeralds, or rubies, and accented by almost 840 diamonds. The three versions of the expensive pens were limited to three releases each and each of the nine pens sold for $730,000.

Hi

It is like you live once and why not live in style? With a Mont Blanc between the fingers, even a signiterate (one who knows to sign only) would go verbose.

Thanks.

This website isnt even interesting anymore, because its not fun looking at things. Everything here is covered in Diamonds. Instead of a link saying; Most Expensive Pen in the World, or Most Expensive Phone in The World, It might as well say, Pen with the Most Diamonds
or
Phone with the Most Diamonds

I think it’s funny when you look at all the comments on different things, even the most rarest, someone has one or two of them.

This is insane, now don’t get me wrong, I love a good pen, but that would probably mean me pushing the boat out to about £300 but $700,000 makes you think what type of person could afford and pen of this magnitude! I work selling pens and my boss has always said to me “Our customers aren’t just the sort of people that can afford to buy our pens, but they can afford to lose them as well!” Makes you think if the eventual owner of one of these pens will be as affluent.

@ rich-boi…… So u r saying that you were insane enough to buy two pens for $120000000 when you could have just gone to the dollar store, and bought like a fifty pack for twenty bucks??!!!?! WOW. And I thought a four dollar Bic pen was a rip off….
