When vintage meets modern

While the Great War was tearing families apart, personal correspondence made it so that Italy’s first fountain pen factory was thriving.

Recalling the soldier’s salutation (“My dearest…”), a retractable nib and ebonite body recall the times when functionality and craftsmanship went hand in hand.

Vintage writing instruments, while beautifully crafted, are often accompanied by erratic performance. The Mia Carissima not only brings back the materials and form of early-period fountain pens, but also their functionality. 

The nostalgic eyedropper fill system has been enhanced with the help of modern technology, a specially developed housing preventing air bubbles and leaks. 

The only ‘drawback’ you’ll notice is the sweet sensation of its 18k gold safety nib gently retracting.
