A Collector Must Have Delta introduced a bold new look for luxury writing instruments in 1998. It was named "Dolcevita" for the Italian "sweet life" that everyone dreams about. They hand-made special Terracotta Orange and Black resins and accented the instruments with hand-cast sterling silver. The result was stunning to look at and raised the bar for luxury writing instruments forever. In 2023 Delta makes a captivating comeback with the introduction of the timeless DV Original Mid-Size collection! This new but familiar collection invites you for a delightful celebration of the sweet life in beautiful Naples, Italy. Friendship and festivity, art and dance, music and laughter - the true joys of life are the inspiration behind this invigorating collection. The DV Original embodies an acrylic resin barrel cast in a brilliant tiger orange and a handcrafted silver band using old skills passed down through generations. A matching capped rollerball fills with our most common refill. There are choices galore! Each writing instrument in the DV Original Collection is presented in a luxurious gift box, making it an ideal choice for gifting to someone special or as a well-deserved treat for yourself. With its timeless design and exceptional writing performance, the Delta DV Original remains a favorite among pen enthusiasts and collectors alike, reminding us to live la dolce vita!
