The New Mega™ Ink Ball™ fills and writes just like a treasured fountain pen! The rollerball head dips in ink and a threaded converter draws any color ink imaginable! The MonteVerde® Mega™ Ink Ball™ offers the smoothest and most versatile liquid writing experience available today!

The Mega™ Ink Ball™ is made of hand-turned Italian grade acrylic resins, and is presented in special luxury kits that include 3 extra front sections and a bottle of highest quality MonteVerde® ink. Mega™ Ink Ball™ gift boxes are crafted like fine furniture to complete a truly Mega experience.

At the dawn of the 18th century, a new art form emerged in china(NABU). The process was called inside (reverse) painting. Clear snuff bottles were hand painted from the inside out, which yielded some of most prized collectibles that the world has ever seen. Southern California based Monteverde™ brings the process to their latest series of limited edition pens. Miraculously, these hand-painted gems are being offered at a fraction of industry standard pricing. Monteverde's original art is hand-painted on the inside of special, hand-made clear acrylic resins.

Monteverde pays tribute to one of mankind's greatest achievements; "The 10,000 Li, Long Wall", Great Wall of China. At more than 4,000 miles long, it is the World's longest man made structure. The Great Wall was built and rebuilt over a 2,000 year period beginning in the 5th century b.c. The section of wall built by Qin Shi Huang, (the first Emperor of China) between 220 B.C. AND 200 B.C. to protect the empire and to prevent the resurgence of feudal lords is legendary but no longer exists.

Your pen pictures a section of the wall constructed during the Ming Dynasty. It is considered to be one of the most visually striking sections of the entire structure. Here, the Wall climbs extremely steep slopes. This section is almost 7 miles long. As the wall and all of its fortifications wind through the mountain pass it is 26 feet tall and measures more than 19 feet thick at its base.

"The Long Wall" is still standing and is visible from space but you can keep this monumental achievement right at your fingertips.
