The delta magnifica amalfi collection is a fusion between sea and earth, inspired by the natural beauty of the amalfi coast in italy. Each amalfi pen features many touchstones to the historic region. The solid olive wood barrel pays homage to the numerous orchards that dot the picturesque coastline. The hand turned blue resin cap and front section take one's thoughts to the mediterranean of day and night, while the gold accents reflect historic icons from the amalfi region. A maltese cross, also known as an amalfi cross, is engraved into the clip. A compass made famous by italian mariner flavio gioia enriches the end of the barrel while a medallion with the crest of the citta di amalfi antica repubblica marinara sits atop the cap. The amalfi fountain pen utilizes delta’s convertible piston filling system and is available with either 18k fusion nib or solid 14k nib.
