LEONARDO MOMENTO ZERO MAGICO PITHECUSA FOUNTAIN PEN ST

Pithecusa
Island of Ischia, the island of beauty ~ We are featuring the Leonardo Momento Zero Magico Pithecusa fountain pen ST (silver trim) with steel nib.

Today, this fountain pen contains pure magic; our magic liquid is the ink that can tell ancient and modern stories. Recalling the splendors of the period between 900 and 700 B.C., a time when Hellenic culture left an important imprint on Italian territory as well, just as it did on the present-day Island of Ischia whose ancient name, Pithecusa, precisely was chosen to celebrate a historical era that is still able to evoke beauty and emotions.

Pithecusa, Momento Magico, features elegant lines, with a clip and washer in perfect vintage style, and in this case the addition of the central metal band engraved with a three-dimensional pantograph gives life to a novel model.
The central band features a stylized Wave pattern, the curves reminiscent of the continuous motion of the sea and the dunes of the sandy beaches of the island of beauty.

The transparent window on the pen body indicates the ink level. The integrated piston filling system has an ink capacity of 1.5 ml and is entirely manufactured in Leonardo workshops.

The nibs:
Gold nib assembled with ebonite black feed
Steel nib assembled with ABS feed

Metal parts available in Rose gold, Gold and Rhodium trim.

Steel nibs EF, F, M, B, Stub1.5, elastic EF, elastic F (ABS feed)

And the story goes on… A family tradition. Leonardo Officina Italiana is a forge, a laboratory where experience and craftsmanship are mixed giving life to “pleasure”, the pleasure of writing. Over 45 years of experience in the field of writing instruments, handed down from father to son, from generation to generation. Today Leonardo Officina Italiana works on emotional and vintage projects, taking up the old loading systems, the materials and the working techniques that once characterized the craft of the craftsman. The Leonardo pens have a soul, a human warmth that only passion can give. The fountain pen carved into the material is certainly this detail that differentiates us on the world market. Each Leonardo collection is hand made with love in Italy.
This means creating pens that pay homage to vintage filling systems, materials and traditional techniques. Each pen is made using carefully selected materials such as ebonite, wood, resins and precious metals, and every piece we make bears our name. Solely crafted in Italy, we strive to differentiate our brand globally.

Our pens celebrate place.
Italy’s landscape, waters, flora and fauna. Our country’s films, art and history from ancient times to present day.

Most importantly, each Leonardo pen has a soul and imbues the warmth that only our passion for making pens can bestow on it. We seek to shed light on Italian artistry in a way that expresses innovation and modernity coupled with our rich heritage. These are the common threads expressed in every Leonardo collection.

This is our story.
This is our legacy.
These are the traditions that have inspired us to create new ones.
