Stipula Etruria Ambrosia Celluloid Piston Fountain Pen
This pen has been lovingly used and comes complete with its original box and papers. It is equipped with a Yellow Gold 14kt Medium nib and fills via piston filler. The trims of this pen are sterling sliver and the nib is yellow gold. Most likely the trim has come off of the nib (which was plated with rhodium)
The new version of Etruria, the Ambrosia is available and comes complete with the innovative Stipula SCS (Self Cleaning System) piston: it guarantees a perfect cleaning of the reservoir every time that the mechanism is used, thanks to the spinning of the head of the piston together with the spinning of the knob. The SCS piston works in a different way from the other pistons: to fill the pen with ink the knob must be turned counterclockwise; to empty it the knob must be turned clockwise. With a celluloid that is semi-transparent, when held to the light it resembles leaves falling during autumn. This pen is a great size, with solid Sterling Silver (stamped 925) trim, and with an in-house piston, this pen glows.
