Scribo La Dotta Fountain Pen in Al Zigant Diamondcast

The Scribo La Dotta collection honors the rich history and heritage of Scribo’s home in Bologna, Italy. This 2023 limited edition collection highlights Bologna’s architectural monuments created in the Middle Ages and Renaissance.The Scribo La Dotta Al Zigant (the Giant) celebrates one of Bologna’s most famous monuments of the mythical sea god, Neptune. Blue and orange Diamondcast resin shimmers with real, conflict-free diamond dust. Scribo pairs polished ruthenium trim and a ruthenium-finished nib with this shimmering pen material.Similarly to the city that inspired it, La Dotta is characterized by a sinuous, rounded appearance. To achieve this shape, SCRIBO removed the facets from their first model, the “Feel,” to accentuate the smoothness and grace of the pen’s gently curving profile. As with the Feel, La Dotta also has a well-balanced design and a high-quality writing experience.At the heart of the Scribo writing experience is the gold nib with a custom ebonite feeder. For writers who want a soft, flexible writing experience, the 14kt “Feel the Flex” nib is one of the best flexible fountain pen nibs on the market today. For a smooth, flowing writing experience in a variety of nib sizes, the 18kt gold “Feel the Writing” nib is a premium choice for discerning writers.The Neptune Fountain is one of the most famous monuments in Bologna and it was built in the 16th century to celebrate the power of the city. The famous fountain has been given an affectionate and ironic nickname in the dialect of Bologna by the Bolognese people, “Al Zigant” (the Giant), and it is meant to emphasize its size and impact on the city.Scribo La Dotta Fountain Pen Specifications Edition: Limited Production 219 handcrafted pieces Body Material: Hand-Turned Diamondcast Resin Trim: Ruthenium Trim Nib: 14 Carat gold Flexible nib or 18 carat gold with ebonite feed Length Closed: 148 mm / 5.82 inches Length Open: 133.5 mm / 5.255 inches Maximum Diameter: 17 mm / 0.67 inches Weight: 1.29oz / 36.50g Cap does not post on back-end Filling System: Internal Piston Mechanism (bottled ink only) holds 1.42ml of ink Gift boxed with a pen pouch made of natural leather and cotton
