Won this recently in a pentrace (facebook) contest in guessing an italian brand name.
A Filcao Atlantica Standard in what Giovanni calls "Pentrace Green". It's a button filler with a latex sac, a Schmidt made medium steel nib (tuned and adjusted by Giovanni before he shipped it off).
The original Filcao company went out of business roughly 3 years ago, and was one of the few pen makers in the Settimo region that had global distribution. Since then Giovanni Abrate purchased the rights to the name, so supposedly there will be some new Filcao models out in the future (hopefully he keeps the option for button fillers and piston fillers in future models, too many revived brands are strictly c/c).
