The pen has always been linked with wisdom. Man could transfer deep thoughts and profound understandings on to pieces of parchment or paper, preserved forever. Writing materials once were difficult to carry around – quills and ink pots made this difficult. The modern fountain pen and then the rollerball changed all that. The ability to carry writing material in a pocket, without an external ink reservoir, changed the written history.
Ancora, the Finest of Italy
Ancora 1919 ’s founder, Giuseppe Zanini, received his first fountain pen as a gift from a relative returning from Americas. A great enthusiast of mechanics, Zanini was immediately smitten by the device, its aesthetics and workings. A luxury in the Italian market, fountain pens were few and far in his land at that time. This did not stop Zanini from manufacturing his own pens. Soon, his pens became famous for their quality and he began selling to the very countries from which pens were imported into Italy.

Ancora 1919 , or Anchor 1919 in English, is the pen manufacturing company Zanini set up in 1919. For a more than a century, it has made the highest quality pens. The company is also famous for making pens with unique materials, ranging from gems and precious stones, to wood from the Titanic.
