AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


Penna Stilografica Colosseum platinum delta pen 1996 limited edition no. 10/70.
From collection, new never used.
Edition 1996
The elegant wooden box contains a fountain pen, a bottle of ink in a calamaio, a notebook with blank parchment sheets sealed with a wax seal bearing the Delta logo, and a warranty certificate. It features a beautiful fountain pen from the renowned Delta Pen company, in a numbered limited edition of only 70 pieces produced. The pen is loaded with a side lever mechanism. Dedicated to the Colosseum (Flavian Amphitheatre), from 70 A.D. to 1996 A.D., the Colosseum Platinum Limited Edition is a writing instrument that reflects the splendor and elegance of ancient Rome through its colors and shapes. Produced in a limited run of only 70 pieces worldwide, it is reserved and exclusively distributed in Italy. Characterized by a central band in pure platinum 950‰, it bears an embossed ivy motif, symbolizing tenacity and loyalty, which, as a secular guardian, clings with its roots to the crumbling walls of time, almost protecting mankind’s most extraordinary achievements. Artisans at Delta created this fountain pen with a body made of special resin, hand-turned from a solid bar in mother-of-pearl yellow gold and black. The nib is made of 750‰ gold with platinum coating, decorated with a 16th-century Celtic design, personalized and elastic. The clip is made of a particularly elastic platinum-plated metal, featuring a small wheel to facilitate attachment to a pocket. The cap has a monogram at its end. Its insertion into the barrel is strictly screw-on with a special three-start thread. To ensure perfect alignment of the lever and clip, insert the barrel with the lever perfectly aligned with the clip and screw clockwise. The real central band features a relief reproduction of ivy leaves, a characteristic and ornamental element, in pure platinum 950‰. The lever is made of platinum-plated metal and engraved with the edition year.
Antique and charming loading system, easy to use, free from wear elements. This pen has never been used, making it a rare and highly sought-after collectible.
Booklet with certificate of authenticity and number 10 of 70. Condition of the packaging and content: in perfect condition as shown in the photo.

Package size: 31 x 21.8 x 5.2 cm.

Pen length: 14.5 cm.
