AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This exceptional Delta piece, belonging to the prestigious Segovia edition – Special Mention, is preserved in outstanding condition, worthy of a discerning collector. It is the 05 sample out of only 30 units manufactured, making it one of the scarcest editions produced by the Italian house.

The body in red marmoleated ebonite presents a deep, uniform shine, with no discolorations or structural flaws. The surface retains the texture and warmth typical of handcrafted ebonite, with reddish veins and intense brown tones perfectly defined.

The central ring in solid 925 silver, with its elaborate sculpted engraving of the aqueduct and Segovia monuments, shows natural and elegant aging, typical of oxidized silver, with no dents or deformations. The official hallmarks are completely sharp and legible.

The metal clip, faithful to Delta's classic style, maintains its original shape, high functional tension, and a clean finish with no notable wear.

The 18 kt solid gold nib (750) with bi-color finish is in impeccable condition: no microfissures, no signs of stress on the shoulders, and a perfectly aligned tip. The Millenium engraving is fully defined, indicating extremely minimal use or meticulous maintenance.

The lever filler mechanism operates smoothly, with no play or undue resistance. It responds precisely to actuation, a clear sign of proper storage and conservation.

The fountain pen is delivered with its original Delta case, distinctive metal plate, ink bottle, sealed wax-sealed envelope, and the numbered official certificate, all in excellent condition, completing a highly collectible set.

Overall, this Delta Segovia – Special Mention presents as an extraordinarily well-preserved piece, with a condition very close to mint, ideal for those seeking a high-artisan craft fountain pen, ultralimited production, and strong cultural significance.

Happy bidding!
