The Story
Delta Pens was a southern Italian company established in 1982 by Nino Marino, Ciro Matrone and Mario Muscente who by emulating classic pen designs from the 20's and 30's and by using exceptional materials and craftsmanship created a well known and highly respected pen company,
Delta Pens display elegance and sophistication in both their limited edition and non-limited editions. These works of art have become highly coveted by many pen enthusiasts, particularly since Delta closed their doors two years ago. This particular example is a limited edition run of the Dolcevita pen, a bright sunny Mediterranean colour scheme with 14k Gold broad nib which writes with a good degree of line variation, much like a stub nib.
The set is in in mint condition and comes boxed and complete with all its original papers, guarantees, sleeves, Delta threaded ink converter and hard case. A near new example of a sold out special edition
The Nitty-Gritty
There are no major imperfections to note, no chips splits or engravings.
Only minor signs of handling, otherwise a perfect example.
Ink Recommendations
An irresistible pairing for this pen would be Jacques Herbin's Cornaline D'Egypt.
