Gioia Alleria Amaranto
The Alleria is a handmade fountain pen turned from precious resin. The 'Amaranto' or 'Amaranth' model is 'inspired by the vibrant colour of the amaranth plant, whose name derives from the Greek word 'amarantos', "the one that does not wither".
The pen itself is a full sized modern classic, measuring in at 142mm capped. The pen has been turned from Italian precious resin and its highly polished finish is accented by gold plated trim. The barrel threads are unique, being at the foot of the grip section, they facilitate a tight seal and a graceful capping experience.
The cap and the barrel together have five trim rings that confer a neo-classic look. The result: a fountain pen with a modern silhouette and a strikingly classic finish that smacks of Italian craftsmanship. With a smooth piston filling mechanism, huge ink capacity and a range of nib options, the Gioia Amaranth is a force to be reckoned with
