Back to modern writing instruments we go with this handsome Italian fountain pen belonging to Jerred...

"The nib is Delta's Fusion nib, in an Extra Fine. The nib was, unfortunately, not particularly good on this model. While it was a reliable writer, it was overly scratchy and required some work."
Sadly, Delta went out of business in 2017, but its DNA lives on in Leonardo Officina Italiana, the pen company co-founded by Salvatore Matrone (who was a designer at Delta) and the Maiora Pen Company, founded in 2018 by Delta's co-founder Nino Marino. Many thanks to Jerred for sharing his latest pen purchase with us, as well as all the others we've showcased in past "show & tells" :)
