Description
The Leonardo Momento Zero Grande ‘Pura’ collection consists of 3 captivating transparent resins with a satin finish, to enhance the internal soul of the pens. The fountain pens are composed of more than 20 manually worked details. For each Pura you can choose between gold, silver or ruthenium trims.
The Pura is available in EF, F, M, B and Stub1.1 grades, in both steel and gold.
The flexible Elastic nib (F) is also available in gold only.
The #6 size nibs with extra-resistant lamination are friction assembled (not screwed) and easily removable.
The Pura is equipped with a black ebonite feed and has a piston filling capacity of 1.5ml. Both of these parts are produced by Leonardo in their workshops.
Please note: the fountain pen is entirely handcrafted, therefore it is possible to find micro turning marks inside the pen body and cap.
Each MZ Grande fountain pen includes a 40ml ink bottle and is guaranteed for life against any manufacturing defects.
And the story goes on… A family tradition. Leonardo Officina Italiana is a forge, a laboratory where experience and craftsmanship are mixed giving life to “pleasure”, the pleasure of writing. Over 45 years of experience in the field of writing instruments, handed down from father to son, from generation to generation. Today Leonardo Officina Italiana works on emotional and vintage projects, taking up the old loading systems, the materials and the working techniques that once characterized the craft of the craftsman. The Leonardo pens have a soul, a human warmth that only passion can give. The fountain pen carved into the material is certainly this detail that differentiates us on the world market. Each Leonardo collection is hand made in Italy.

I absolutely love this pen the moment I had it. I love its overall look and design. Size is comparable to my Visconti HS but a tad lighter which makes long writing sessions more pleasant. It’s poston filler mechanism holds a ton of ink which makes this pen a good partner on your travels. I brought this once on a weekend where I had to write a lot of things and got home with enough ink to write a few more pages on my journal. Mine came with a Fine steel nib which writes very smooth with just enough resistance on paper to give you that feel that you are still writing with a fountain pen. I highly recommend this one. This should be part of every fountain pen enthusiast’s collection.

Pen: The Leonardo Momento Zero Grande Pura is a wonderful pen. The design is classic, and the craftmanship is superb. The broad nib writes smoothly with ample ink flow due to the ebonite feed. The piston filling system is firm with an ink capacity of about 1.5 mls. The grey demonstrator has a matte finish that is smooth to touch. As expected, you see the ink supply. This pen impressed me so much, I am on a mission to buy the complete Momento line.
Appelboom: Excellent service. When I placed my order, the supply was low., so Appelboom had to order from Leonardo. It took a while for Leonardo to fill the order, but once the pen arrived, Appelboom sent it to me direct via DHL. I also asked for the tune and smooth service for the first time. No adjustments or smoothing of the nib needed upon arrival. I will use this service in the future.
Overall, outstanding pen and service.
