New Delta Dolce Vita

La Dolce Vita, Italian for "the sweet life”. The body and cap are hand turned Terracotta Orange and Black resins with sterling silver/925 clip and trim. The ring on the cap is engraved by hand in sterling silver and reproduces an old Roman décor from paintings of Pompei. The clip is equipped with a small rolling wheel for sliding in and out of a pocket and is platinum plated. The nib is 18kt/750 solid gold with a platinum mask. The new ones that are produced are 14kt due to the rise in gold cost. I decided to go with a fine nib after writing with several. You can get inter-changeable EEF, EF, F, M, B, OM, OB, OBB, BB, and Stub nibs. It has a international cartridge/converter filling system.

Thanks guys. I am really loving the way this pen writes and looks. The weight is perfect. It is not heavy or light, kind of in-between. Nick the ink is Pelikan Turquoise.
