Wim it's an Etruria. I got it from Marco at Novelli. But it's also now on Stipula's site, at least the store.

Even they call it an Etruria. it even has the backwards rotating piston.

 

It's smaller than the current Amber, same size as the original Amber but with current curved section. Doesn't it look like an Etruria?

Why the 'really need' to know? Another Etruria for your collection? :D

Aaaaaaaaaaa :bonk: :bonk: :gaah: :gaah: I am close to bankruptcy with all these great new Etrurias this year, even worse than in 2006 when there were 7 new ones, no 8... This year it's 9 ....

Ah well... :cloud9:

 

:D

 

Warm regards, Wim

 

 

btw, which are the 9 Etrurias launched this year?

I'm aware about 5:

1. Stipula Etruria Antoni Gaudi Casa Mila, sand resin, LE 74, piston filler 14K gold nib – sterling silver trim with a glossy gold finish;

2. Stipula Etruria Antoni Gaudi Casa Mila, sand resin, LE 274, c/c Ti T-flex nib – sterling silver trim with a faded matte gold finish;

3. Stipula Etruria Casa Batllo LE 274, Ti T-flex nib, black resin, vermeil hand painted trim;

4. Stipula Etruria Voyeur, black resin, Nib, Ti, 14K, 18K, sterling silver trim;

Hi Liviu,

If there are two different Casa Mila's, that'll make 10 this year :gaah: .

 

1. Stipula Etruria Fiesole Light

2. Stipula Etruria Fiesole DeLuxe, vermeil trim

3. Stipula Etruria Voyeur

4. Stipula Etruria De Architectura Gaudì Casa Mila PF

5. Stipula Etruria De Architectura Gaudì Casa Mila C/C

6. Stipula Etruria Ambrosia

7. Stipula Etruria FPN LE Notte di Luna Silver Trim

8. Stipula Etruria FPN LE Notte di Luna Vermeil Trim

9. Stipula Etruria FPN LE Notte di Stelle Silver Trim

10. Stipula Etruria FPN LE Notte di Stelle Vermeil Trim

 

The Stipula Etruria De Architectura Gaudì Casa Battlìo actually dates from 2007.

BTW, there also is a De Architectura Gaudì Pedrera (2007, Cracked Ice), and a De Architectura Leon Battista Alberti (2009, red brown celluloid with green flecks).

 

The nibs don't matter with these: you can get them with Titanium, 14K or 18K nib, although the PFs used to come with 18K nibs, and the C/Cs with 14K nibs.

 

Warm regards, Wim

Hi Wim,

 

There is a new version of Casa Battlo, the one from 2007 has sterling silver trim painted, while the new one from 2011 has vermeil trim painted.

So there are 11. It is not fair at all.

 

I forgot about the FPN LE Etrurias :rolleyes:

That hurts! 11!

 

Ah well, some more dry bread, some potatoes and rice, and maybe a few veggies, for a while :D.

 

Warm regards, Wim ;)

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
