DESCRIPTION

TIBALDI FOUNTAIN PEN, DRACO ET PHOENIX.
Hand-painted resin barrel and gold-plated details.
Limited edition. Exemplary 24/99.

Tibaldi presents an exclusive set of fountain pens celebrating two of the most powerful and auspicious mythological creatures of Chinese tradition: the Dragon and the Phoenix. One of the fountain pens has a hand-painted portrait of the Dragon on its barrel, while the other features an elegant image of the Phoenix. Both pieces are designed with extraordinary precision, combining high-level craftsmanship with innovative technology.

Tibaldi fountain pens follow the principle of the Divine Proportion (Phi), a mathematical concept that guarantees perfect aesthetics in every detail. This principle is present throughout the design, from the proportion between the cap and the body of the pen to the accompanying case.

Since the presentation of its first fountain pen in 1916, Tibaldi has been synonymous with quality and excellence, being highly valued by collectors. The TIBALDI DRACO ET PHOENIX collection is based on the exclusive design of the Divina series, which has two international patents that endorse its technical innovation and its design based on the Divine Proportion.

Each features a clip with a press-and-roll system for easy transport, while the clips are sculpted using advanced technology combined with the skill of Italian craftsmen.

Artist Lorena Straffi, known for her work in airbrushing, has hand-painted the detailed portraits of the mythological creatures on the DRACO ET PHOENIX pens. Straffi has taken her art to extreme levels of precision, working within millimeters of the surface to achieve a perfect painting.

The tips of the TIBALDI pens are made of solid 18-karat gold, engraved with the "1ª Qualità" certification. The thickness of the gold varies along the tip to offer flexibility and comfort in writing, to adapt to different writing styles.

Each TIBALDI DRACO ET PHOENIX is a unique work, limited to only 99 sets. This exclusive set is presented as a jewel for collectors and lovers of high-end pieces.
