The Monteverde Regatta “Broadway Boogie-Woogie” Limited Numbered Edition of only 942 pens is a striking tribute to the bold geometry and vibrant palette that defined Piet Mondrian’s art. The design captures the dynamic energy and rhythm of his masterpiece “Broadway Boogie Woogie”, incorporating the clean lines and carefully segmented blocks of color that characterize his abstract style. The pen features a mix of primary hues—red, yellow, and blue—set against a backdrop of black, white, and gray, reflecting the essence of Mondrian's Neo-Plasticism. These colors are carefully arranged in a balanced yet energetic pattern, echoing the lively streets of New York City that inspired Mondrian’s work.
The interplay of color on the pen is not just an aesthetic choice but a reflection of Mondrian's philosophy of asymmetrical balance. The vibrant hues contrast with the neutral tones, creating a visual rhythm that mirrors the boogie-woogie music that so deeply influenced the artist. This design element allows each pen to become a small piece of art, bringing the essence of Mondrian’s abstract world into the hands of the writer.
The collection’s thoughtful construction includes a magnetic closure system, ensuring effortless capping and posting for the fountain pen. This practical feature enhances the pen’s streamlined form while adding an innovative touch. Additionally, the well-balanced weight of each writing instrument ensures comfort during extended writing sessions, minimizing hand fatigue and enhancing the overall writing experience.
Limited to just 942 numbered pieces, the Regatta “Broadway Boogie-Woogie” collection reflects Mondrian’s philosophy of harmony and balance, both in its design and its exclusive nature. Each pen is individually numbered, adding a personal touch to this tribute to Mondrian’s legacy, making it not just a writing instrument, but a collectible piece of art.
Piet Mondrian (Dutch 1872-1944) is a famous 20th century Dutch painter. Mondrian took interest in impressionist techniques, and, like his countryman, Vincent Van Gogh, he used pure, glowing colors. Later on, he transitioned toward a pointillist cubist styles, as well as other abstract compositional structures.

Our note about the JoWo Omniflex nib: This flex nib will allow you to experience more bounce and softness than writing with conventional nibs. You can achieve some line variation with a little additional downward pressure, to a point. We recommend flexing the nib to about twice the line width that you would see without using any pressure. Please take care to avoid pressing too hard on the nib, as over-flexing could prevent the tines from returning fully to their original position and decrease or stop your ink flow.
