    Default Delta - What is this named

    This Delta was among a box of pens I took care of for a friend some time ago. What is this model called?

    The body is identical to the Dolce Vita, which is usually an orange body and black caps; and the stantuffo (piston filler) variation.

    I've never seen one in that color.

    This pen has serial number 000/015 so may have been a prototype.

    That would make sense. "000" perhaps makes it the production sample?

    The material looks a lot like Aurora's "Auroloide". The heart-shaped breather hole wasn't common production, and usually found on some LE releases that Chatterly Luxuries would have.

    I don't know the model and don't know that much about Delta pens but it's really attractive and looks like it has a nice nib. At least it doesn't look like a F nib. Sweet.

    It is a medium to broad stub.
