This week we’re bringing you another great pen from Monteverde. The Monteverde Giant Sequoia Fountain Pen finds its roots of inspiration in the majestic Giant Sequoia trees. The earthy tones and stripes used resemble the trunks of these great trees.
Continue reading for a chance to win the Monteverde Giant Sequoia Fountain Pen that we used in this review.
Appearance 
As stated, the earthy tones and stripes are reminiscent of the trunks and foliage of these living giants. The Giant Sequoia Pen is available in three colors; Green, Brown, and Blue. Also, each color comes with durable polished chrome accents. The Monteverde Giant Sequoia Fountain Pen is a large pen, as the name “Giant” implies. It measures to be around 0.6in in diameter, and about 5.7in long while capped. Also, the pen measures out to be 6.7in long while posted.
Qualities
The body is made from an acrylic resin, which is lightweight and very durable. Also, the chrome trim is scratch resistant, which is definitely a huge plus. The Giant Sequoia Pen is available in four different nib sizes. It comes in; Fine, Medium, Broad, as well as a 1.1mm Stub. In addition, each pen has a Monteverde International Standard Converter included in the pen. You can, of course, also use International Standard Sized cartridges if you prefer.
Performance
For this review we used a Brown Giant Sequoia Fountain Pen with a Medium nib. Also, we used the Krishna Causal Ink that we reviewed on Monday. The nib was smooth on the paper that we used, and laid down a nice reliable line. The pen is definitely on the larger side, so some of you with smaller hands may not enjoy the large grip section. On the other hand, those of you with bigger hands will find the pen to be pleasant to hold and feel.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Monteverde Giant Sequoia Fountain Pen is a great pen, reminiscent of some of the great giants of the world. If you are looking for the next pen for your collection, definitely take a look at this one. Don’t forget to share this with your friends so that they can have a chance to win!

Thanks for the review of this pen. I would like to have seen a size comparison with other common pens. In the hopes of winning this Monteverde Giant Sequoia I promise to post a pic with other pens for comparison.
My favorite ink right now is Organics Studio Thoreau Walden. Love this ink!
Thanks for the opportunity to win this pen!
Nice review! The Sequoia looks stunning. I really enjoy large-light pens. The Edison Collier is one of my favorites for this reason.
I like the size and shape of this pen, and I love Monteverde stub nibs. I wish the “green” colorway were better… but the pictured color looks incredible.
My favorite ink is still Sailor Gentle Yamadori !
Such a lovely Pen! I hope to own one in the not too distance future. Thank you for the chance. God Bless & Love You Bunches!!!
What a nice pen. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Thanks for the opportunity to win a Giant Sequoia fountain pen. You asked what I’d like you to riviera next: as always, inks that are no longer being produced. I think that would be kind of interesting.
I like Pilot Iroshizuku kon-peki.
I love the color pattern on this model. I would love to see a blue/black ink shootout.
Oh, I’ve wanted one of these for awhile!!! Love the green one. Great looking pen.
Thanks for the review and the giveaway. Looks like a really nice pen.
Thanks for the giveaway and review. Can the pen be used as an eye dropper?
This one has been on my wishlist for quite awhile! Couldn’t decide on a color and now they are hard to find!
Favorite ink: Diamine Chopin from the music collection!
Beautiful pen and tribute to beautiful trees! Thanks for a thorough review and great giveaway!
I would appreciate reviews of Krishna inks.

Krishna inks.
Great looking pen. Would love to use and share with other pen lovers.
Love the green color of this pen, and it’d be an interesting size to try out.
That’s a sleek looking pen.
How about reviewing Parker Penman Sapphire (if you can get some, that is)?
Cool pen. It looks like it might be able to convert to an eyedropper type, depending on the barrel/ threading of the grip section.
Please 93545
I don’t have any Monteverde pens yet. This one would be a good first on for me!
Majestic, just like the tree it’s named after
My favorite ink right now is Edelstein Jade. Not your run of the mill green, and has some nice shading and even a little sheen to it.
Please review the colorverse collection!!
That’s a beautiful pen that should be mine!
great pen! Love the review and and thank you for the awesome giveaway!
My favorite pen right now is the TWSBI eco!
This is a wonderful pen. I like brown
My favorite ink of the moment is Pilot Iroshizuku
Yama-Budo. I would love to win this pen so I could journal near the Giant Sequoias which is a 45 minute drive from my home!
Wow, you don’t see a lot of pens in brown like that, but that color would pair well with so many inks.
My favorite pen is my Retro 51 Ghost Ranger.
I already own a green Giant Sequoia pen with a 1.1 stub. It’s a lovely pen. I’ve used DeAtramentis Pine ink in it and am planning to try Diamine Sherwood ink in it.
Anything by Monteverde!
I really, really like the finish on this one.
Wow! Looks like a nice pen. Love the colour!
I only have carbon black but I’d love to try some of the Noodler’s inks. I love teal and lime green so I’d have to go choose, so hard with so many colors!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Hard to choose a favorite pen.
This could be my favorite if I win.
Love the earth tones on this pen. Thanks for the review!
Wow that’s a beautiful pen!
Stunning!! Would love to win this to use for all my writing moments.
The botanist in me loves the name!
Wow! Nice pen! Thanks for the giveaway 🙂

I think the new monteverde emotions line would be some good inks to review.

I’ve finally seen this pen in person and it’s abeaury.
I like the color of this pen, and the larger size!
