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".

Fantastic resin pen - lovely deep colours

A really chunky pen with an excellent nib. The section is large and would not suit all hands - but certainly appeals to my tastes. The pen is made out of the most beautiful resin, with lovely deep colours and is aptly named. I hope there will be further collaborations of this type.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this pen with ink cartridges? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A cartridge is small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write!

This pen uses standard international ink cartridges, a common size which is available in many colors from various brands.

You can learn more about how to actually install an ink cartridge on our blog, or in this video tutorial:

How do I use a converter? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A converter goes in the place of where the ink cartridge would normally go. From there, you can fill your fountain pen from bottled ink.

A converter is a detachable and refillable ink reservoir that allows you to use bottled ink in a cartridge-accepting pen. Typically you will install the converter into the grip section, dip the nib/feed into the ink, and twist or pull the converter knob to draw ink into the converter.

We have a great video showing how to use a converter here:

How do I clean this fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It mostly comes down to flushing out the pen with water, and sometimes a little bit of pen flush if the ink is really stuck. 

We put together a blog post with step-by-step instructions, or you can watch the video here:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

For even more information about fountain pen cleaning, check out our Fountain Pen 101 video blog post.
