Stipula Etruria Fountain Pen - Tortoise
The Stipula Etruria fountain pen has a large, commanding profile and a wonderfully comfortable grip. It is surprisingly lightweight for its size. The rounded cap and barrel are hand-turned from solid rods of Italian resin. The Tortoise Brown resin is complemented by matte gold accents, and a gold-plated #6 steel nib. The fittings are perfectly smooth with a satin matte finish: the clip engraved with a single Stipula 'leaf' logo, and the four rings added to the cap design. It fills via standard international cartridge or converter (included) and comes packaged in a gift box.
