Delta: Dolcevita Slim vs Passion

  1. 1. Which one of these do you think is better?



Recommended Posts

Hello!

 

I decided to start swimming in the Italian FP waters and I find myself in need of some help.

 

Delta Dolcevita Slim (the upper picture) and Delta Passion in Ivory (the 2nd picture) have cought my attention.

The Dolcevita is slightly bigger (if I'm not mistaken judging from the pictures) and has a gold nib whereas the Delta Passion has a steel one. Dolcevita is ofcourse also more expensive due to its gold nib. I like both styles of the pen but I do not know if the Dolcevita's price for that nib is really worth it. But then again, the Passion only having a steel nib for that price also isn't helping its case (I found a retailer in Italy that would sell the Dolcevita Slim for about 250-300euro and the Passion for 200euro.)

 

Any help would be appreciated, you may also just vote on the pole (if it's working, 1st time making a pole on this forum).

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Sincerely,

Attena

I think that the Passion is larger than the Dolcevita Slim.
At least for diameter, but maybe also as length (but I haven't Dolcevita Slim in stock, therefore it's on my memory)

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
