Leonardo Officina Italiana - Momento Zero Black Matte | Pen Venture

Available for the first days of March 2026, with pre-orders now open, the new Leonardo Momento Zero Grande Pura collection marks the highly anticipated return of a beloved design. Following the success of its previous edition and numerous requests from enthusiasts worldwide, Pura returns in three refined frosted (sandblasted) finishes: Petrol Blue, Red, and Gray. Inspired by the iconic silhouette of the Momento Zero Grande, this edition is also now fitted with smooth size #8 steel nibs along Leonardo usual line up of steel #6 and 14k gold #6 nibs, offering in all nibs a reliable performance in hand. Steel #6 nibs are paired with ABS feeder - Steel #8 and 14k #6 nibs are paired with ebonite feeders.

The new Pura stands apart through its distinctive cap design. Replacing the classic three metal rings, a single engraved metal band featuring a three-dimensional pantograph defines its character (first used on the Leonardo MZG Speranza - which reminds us of the time when we all passed through the pandemic times). This geometric detailing creates a striking contrast with the pen’s soft, rounded form, an elegant nod to the era of Geometric Art (900–700 BC), where structured ornament met timeless proportion. The result is a writing instrument that feels both contemporary and rooted in artistic heritage.

Crafted in Italy and equipped with an integrated piston filling system produced in Leonardo’s own workshops, the MZG Pura offers a generous 1.5 ml ink capacity and can be disassembled using the dedicated steel wrench for maintenance. With its unique color palette and unmistakable Italian design language, the MZG Pura achieves a perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality, an essential piece for collectors and passionate writers alike.

Italian original quality. It is guaranteed for life against manufacturing defects.

Excellent

Very interesting pen, well balanced and with a clip that helps to carry in the jacket pocket. Excellent article

Pilot Urushi perfection

Magnificent in its simplicity. The nib is tuned to perfection. The perfect size for most hands. A smooth no feedback nib that is very forgiving and is left hand friendly. The Urushi is smooth radiating an out of this world brilliance, paint strokes are evident with a 10x loop. And of course the fit and finish and Pilots quality control is flawless perfection.

Leonardo Momento: Momentous

The Leonardo Momento is a magnificent writing instrument. The grey translucent body give's a hint of its interior and allows you to see thr ink level. The feel on the the body is similar to the lava on a Visconti Homo Sapiens. The gold colored steel nib explodes with the name Leonardo surrounded with flourishes. The stub nib writes with minimal feedback and allows for some very nice line variation. It is an Excellent choice for left handed writers. Overall the fit and finish is flawless.

Stunning Leonardo Momento Magico Primary Manipulation 1 by Jonathon Brooks

This is my first Leonardo pen and I am very impressed so far! I also have never tried a piston fill system and I am liking it. The pen is absolutely stunning and I do know that each pen by Jonathon Brooks is different however I was sent photos of the exact pen I was buying, of each side of it and for this I am very grateful to Pen Venture and their fabulous customer service. I was hesitant about ordering as I am in Canada but the shipping was very speedy and the "tariffs" were minimal!! I would not hesitate to order from Pen Venture again as this Leonardo is exquisite to write with as well as to look at!

OUTSTANDING

If you want heavy-duty protection for your pens without the maintenance or bulk of leather, this case delivers everything you need in a sleek, robust, incredible functional design. Highly recommended!
