About the Capless Decimo
Released in 1963, the Capless (Vanishing Point) fountain pen revolutionized writing instruments with its innovative retractable nib mechanism. The Decimo—meaning “tenth” in Spanish—marks the 10th generation of this iconic line. It's notably lighter and slimmer than previous models, making it ideal for everyday carry and extended writing sessions.
The Decimo series features a push-button mechanism to extend or retract the nib, combining convenience and elegance in a way few fountain pens can match. Globally known as the "Vanishing Point," it offers the joy of fountain pen writing with the convenience of a ballpoint.
About the 20 Colors Series
Launched in 2019 in four releases over the span of a year, this vibrant collection reimagined the classic Decimo in 20 unique matte hues. Its brushed finish adds a contemporary touch, while the lightweight construction ensures effortless handling.
This particular color is now out of production and highly prized among collectors and fountain pen enthusiasts.
