Product

Gioia Bellavista Fountain Pen Acqua Azzurra Rhodium Trim

Description

Bellavista line, being based on the design of the ALLERIA, all models of this line come with an ink window, and a beautiful ring on the cap (made by using the lost-wax technique) which displays a band of the brand logo’s “A”. And last but not least, we finally offer the possibility - thanks to the included piston removal tool (wrench) - to uninstall the piston system for a better cleaning of the fountain pen.

Same as ALLERIA Grotta Azzurra’s resin, but replaced the ruthenium-plated trim by a rhodium-plated trim, making this pen very bright and shiny in order to remind the blue waters of our shores illuminated on an Italian summer day

Great pen!

This is a lovely pen that compares well with more expensive counterparts. I own almost twenty fountain pens, including Mont Blanc, Pelikan, Sailor, Visconti and Delta. I always keep two or three inked and write with them daily.
The Bellavista Azzurra is as beautiful as it appears in its advertising. The resin is deep and rich, with subtle, dark marbling. With its cap band creating a compelling counterpoint, it’s a piece of art.
I have big hands and prefer big pens. Though it's a bit on the heavy side, it's nicely balanced and very comfortable in my hand. With the cap posted, it’s not at all tiring to write with.
For me, though, the most important thing is the writing experience. I paid a little more for the medium italic nib, my first italic nib ever, and I love it. Its touch on paper is silky, requires no pressure, and the ink flows smoothly and easily. It’s simply fun to write with and is now one of my favorite nibs.
With its relatively affordable price, this pen is a real winner.
