Description from the seller

64/88, a detail that significantly increases its rarity, traceability, and collectible value.
This fountain pen represents the ultimate expression of Italian craftsmanship, conceived as an artistic piece before a mere writing instrument. Each element reflects strength, balance, and formal perfection. Made with rock from Mount Vesuvius.
Crafted with noble materials and finishes of the highest quality, it presents a sculptural, powerful, and refined aesthetic, designed for an extremely select audience. It is equipped with an 18K solid gold nib, offering smooth, deep, and precise writing, in keeping with a piece of this caliber.

Made with Italian cotton resin in a deep red color, the pen captures the fused beauty of Vesuvius in eruption: bold, passionate, and unforgettable.
Crowned with a genuine lava stone from Mount Vesuvius on the top of the cap, each piece carries a fragment of nature’s raw energy. A brilliant ruby stone, embedded in the design, symbolizes the eternal flame and the volcano’s unstoppable power.
Screw-cap. Piston-filling.

Due to its extremely limited production, this fountain pen is considered a museum-level collectible, intended for discerning collectors, luxury-object investors, and lovers of Italian artistic fountain pen craftsmanship. It very rarely appears on the secondary market.
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a contemporary masterpiece of fountain pen artistry,
It is like-new. Only inked once to check function. Shipped insured.
The diameter is approximate.
