Delta Pens has designed a majestic limited edition fountain pen with a unique and elegant shape to celebrate the 500th anniversary of one of the greatest masters of Italian art – Pietro Vannucci called “Il Perugino”.

Designed to represent the aesthetics and artistic genius of a painter who left an indelible mark in the Italian art history. It is in the beautiful city of Perugia that his history begins, where it refines its talent by attending local workshops, up to Florence, where it is working alongside personalities such as Leonardo Da Vinci and Sandro Botticelli. “Il Perugino” is recognized as a master in painting landscapes and human figures with extreme elegance and harmony. One of the most famous masterpieces of “Il Perugino” is the “Delivery of the Keys to Saint Peter”, a fresco made in the Sistine Chapel, in the Vatican (Rome). This work is considered one of the best examples of linear perspective and architectural representation, as well as an icon of Renaissance and religious painting.

The fountain pen evokes colors and architectural decorative elements present in most of the extraordinary works of “Il Perugino”; it is made of special resin hand-turned from solid bar. The cap band is gold plated 925 sterling silver (vermeil), made according to the ancient techniques of craftsmanship of goldsmith art, called “lost wax”. The cap is enriched by a clip that presents a precious stone of an intense ruby red color, and a cabochon, both made in “lost wax” fusion. At the end of the barrel takes place the “octagonal” decoration representing the geometric symbolism typical of “Il Perugino”, the same decoration that is engraved on the barrel.
