Wes Anderson’s knack for obsessive detail isn’t confined to the silver screen. When Montblanc tapped the filmmaker to direct a short film celebrating the 100th anniversary of their iconic Meisterstück pen, Anderson didn’t just deliver a quirky cinematic gem—he secretly designed a pen of his own. The Schreiberling, German for “the scribbler,” is a pocket-sized fountain pen that screams Anderson’s aesthetic: dual shades of green lacquer the barrel and cap, accented by vibrant yellow and a red-ringed Montblanc logo.
The 18k white gold nib, etched with Anderson’s own doodle, adds a personal flourish. Limited to 1,969 pieces—a nod to Anderson’s birth year—this $2,500 set includes a matching notepad, architectural ruler, and green ink cartridges, all housed in a minimalist green tin. Inspired by the compact “baby” pens of the 1910s and ’20s, it’s as much a collector’s piece as a writing tool. Pre-orders are open, with deliveries expected in summer 2025. Whether you’re a fountain pen aficionado or a die-hard Anderson fan, the Schreiberling is an everyday carry that doubles as a cinematic artifact.
