Delta Signs of Time Fountain Pen - Classical Art (Special Edition)
We celebrate the power of art through time. The Delta Signs of Time collection of twelve fountain pens masterfully pays tribute, through design details and materials, to the most important artistic movements that have influenced global culture. This collection is a bridge between the tradition of art and a passion for elegance.
Classical Greek-Roman art represents the pinnacle of the quest for harmony, proportion, and perfection. This artistic movement gave rise to masterpieces that blend aesthetics and storytelling, celebrating mythology, nature, and human life through images of extraordinary elegance and refinement. A symbol of the balance between creativity and rationality, classical art established the standards of beauty that have inspired generations of artists. Its compositions are a journey into the ideal, an ode to the pursuit of formal and spiritual perfection.
This red resin fountain pen is accented by silver trim and a matching nib. The stainless steel #6 fountain pen nib is made by the German brand JoWo. In addition to several standard nib sizes, there is also a flex nib variant that allows you to alter the line thickness by varying the pressure applied to the nib. It fills via cartridge or converter (one is included), allowing you to use bottled ink.
Delta, the renowned Italian pen brand that has been creating stunning and distinct pens since the 1980s, has made a triumphant return after it ceased operations in the 2010s. This new Delta brand has been personally revitalized by Nino Marino, one of Delta's co-founders who also owns and manages Maiora and Nettuno pen brands. Each pen is handmade in Naples, Italy, and is individually numbered.
Note: We do our best to photograph the pens to show how they will appear in person, but due to the nature of the material, there will be some variation in the pattern seen here. This adds an element of uniqueness to the pen, with no two patterns being exactly the same. We cannot honor special requests.
