The name Ferrari stands for aesthetic design, powerful engines, almost endless technical innovation and one of the most influential men in automotive history. With enormous vision and an unbridled passion for motorsport, Enzo Ferrari led his company to unparalleled prestige and created a legend that lives on.

Montblanc has dedicated the Montblanc Great Characters Enzo Ferrari Special Edition to the man and his passion for racing. Drawing inspiration from both the crest of Enzo Ferrari’s hometown Modena and the emblematic colour of the Scuderia’s logo, the Montblanc Great Characters Enzo Ferrari Special Edition Giallo Modena Fountain Pen honours Ferrari’s second soul – the colour yellow.

The dates of Enzo Ferrari’s birth and his first racing victory are engraved on the cone, while his signature and the name of his father’s workshop, ‘Officina Meccanica Alfredo Ferrari’, in reference to Enzo Ferrari’s birthplace, are engraved on the cap top. It is crowned by the Montblanc emblem in precious blue resin – as a further tribute to the crest of Modena – and surrounded by intricate metalwork reminiscent of a vintage car grill. Enzo Ferrari’s first victory, at the Circuito del Savio, was also the occasion marking the beginning of the now famous Ferrari logo. Countess Paolina Biancoli, suggested that Enzo Ferrari should use the emblem of a prancing, unbridled horse from her son’s plane on his racing cars for good luck. The horse’s association with a national hero’s courage and will to dominate made it an ideal symbol for Enzo. Nine years later, in 1932, the Cavallino Rampante was first used on a yellow background to adorn a car at Spa 24 Hours, and the Scuderia Ferrari team took first and second place with two cars bearing the Prancing Horse. The Cavallino Rampante is engraved on the cap of the Montblanc Great Characters Enzo Ferrari Special Edition together with the words of the countess: ‘Le porterà fortuna’ (‘It will bring you luck’).

The first car made by Ferrari, the 125 S, with twelve cylinders, left the factory in Maranello on 12 March 1947. Twelve engraved lines symbolise the twelve cylinders. Enzo Ferrari’s motto, ‘You cannot describe passion, you can only live it’, decorates the ruthenium-coated clip. As a tribute to Enzo’s success, the solid Au 585 gold, ruthenium-coated nib is embossed with the word ‘Pilota’ (one of his nicknames) and the steering wheel of the 250 GTO, one of the world’s most renowned racing cars.
