Product Description

Product Name Stipula Florentia - Smaller Size
Manufacturer and Year Stipula, Italy -- early 2000s.
Length 5-3/16"
Filling System It takes international cartridges and converters. A piston converter is installed.
Color Amber celluloid with solid 8k gold trim. The amber is a mix of golden flecked brown and semi-transparent red. The red is much brighter in hand than it looks in the photos. The photos make it look pretty brown. The trim is 8k and stamped 333 as 33.3% gold. The cap band has a simple leaf pattern etched in it and the clip is rectangular and also has leaf patterning.
Nib Medium 18k nib is single tone to match the gold trim. It is springier than the two-tone Stipula nibs.
Condition The pen is in excellent + condition. It has no scratches, dents, chips, or cracks. The imprints and trim pattern are a little worn and the clip end does not make contact with the cap (that seemed to be an issue with this model.). It also has a bit of handwear but the transparency is great.
