The Delta DV Original Oversize is a unique collaboration with Jonathon Brooks of the U.S. based Carolina Pen Company. With its stunning interplay of dark and light hues, the exclusive hand-made resin will transport you to the Italian Riviera on a perfect summer day.
Brooks is revered in the writing instrument community for producing unique and beautiful resins in small batches, using proprietary techniques ensuring consistent blends and bubble-free casting. By collaborating with legendary pen maker Nino Marino, the Italian and American companies have produced a one of a kind collector’s item, sure to be treasured for generations.
The DV Original Oversize, produced at the famous Delta factory in Naples, Italy, is a classic profile featuring a 14K no. 8 nib and a striking green ebonite feed that is manufactured in house. Fans will recognize the signature Delta roller clip and sterling silver mid-ring.
Complemented by palladium trim, it has an oversized design and feel. Equipped with an oversized #8 JoWo 14k palladium-plated nib, you'll be able to smoothly write with precision and ease.
This trim color is a Goulet-exclusive release! Each pen is individually numbered out of 25.
The fountain pen is refillable using standard international ink cartridges or using the included converter with bottled ink or directly filled with an eyedropper, resulting in an ink capacity commensurate with the oversize design.
DV is short for "dolce vita", translated from Italian as "sweet life".
