Description from the seller

Collectors' Lot Description: Italian Vintage Elegance - Ferrari and Morris
An unmissable auction for lovers of prestigious writing. This exclusive lot offers a plunge into the Italian elegance of the 1970s, with two renowned brands that helped shape the history of design and mechanics: Ferrari da Varese and Morris.
The lot includes:
Pair of Ferrari da Varese in Solid Silver: Two authentic jewels of Italian craftsmanship, aballpoint pen and a mechanical pencil. Both instruments are made in solid silver 950/1000 with a refined oblique ribbed pattern, evidence of artisanal mastery and timeless luxury. They are offered in their original case, which certifies authenticity and preserves their condition (as visible in the photo, the case shows a small internal stain on the lining, which does not compromise usability).
Pair of Morris in Red Lacquer: A classic from the 1970s, this pair includes a ballpoint pen and a fountain pen with a sleek and elegant design. The body is finished in a glossy red lacquer, enriched with gold details and a gold clip that create a pleasing contrast, giving the pens a sophisticated and distinctive look. Fully functional (refill to be replaced), they are ideal for those seeking a splash of color and vintage style on their desk.
Four unique pieces, ideal to enrich a collection or as a special gift for those who appreciate the beauty of vintage objects. Don’t miss the chance to own a piece of Italian writing history.
The lot will be shipped with insured international express courier.
