on sale(Bottom Shelf) Maiora Ogiva Fountain Pen - Astriel (Limited Edition)
MSRP $645.00
Bottom Shelf: This pen has been gently used, but is otherwise in great shape. While every effort to clean these pens is made, you might see residual ink or water, as they are not brand new. All Bottom Shelf sales are final.
This fountain pen is made entirely of fine cellulose acetate, a one-of-a-kind material, recovered from Delta's Historic Materials Archive! It is hand turned from solid bar and comes with a fixed piston ink filling mechanism and a 14k rose gold nib.
The beautiful design captures the depth of space with shades that change under the light: the deep blue of the night, the warm brown of nebulae, the radiant gold of rising stars and shadows as dark as the vastness of infinity.
Each limited edition pen is numbered out of 68, and is 100% handmade in Italy. The Maiora Ogiva Astriel fountain pen is only available at Goulet Pens!
