Delta Dolcevita Fusion Celluloid Fountain Pen
Delta’s most popular design, the Dolcevita is now available in a Fusion 82 body. Orange and black contrast, but in this case, the orange barrel is in celluloid. The same rhodium plated central ring, which features a decoration from a Greek-Roman period shown in the frescoes of Pompeii. The clip is made of particularly elastic metal, obtained from solid blocks, sanded and finished by hand and fitted with a rotating wheel to facilitate positioning in the pocket.
This fountain pen holds the patent-pending Fusion nib – a revolution in design by Delta. The nib was developed to improve the efficiency of the fountain pen by enhancing the physical-chemical properties of ink within its assembly system. The foundation of the Fusion nib is a steel alloy covered and decorated with a layer of precious 18K gold: the ink is made more viscous on the tip of the nib because the thermal conductivity of the precious metal plate will heat the underlying steel – the higher temperature makes the ink flow more smoothly. The combination of gold and steel on the flexible nib gives it a unique and appealing look.
