Overview

Scribo's Piuma Ametista fountain pen recreates the violet tones of amethyst in handcrafted resin. Gold PVD trim frames the stone-inspired finish, while the oval body and two flat facets give this edition the distinctive outline of the Piuma collection.

Ametista belongs to a trio of Piuma finishes inspired by agate, amethyst, and carnelian and their symbolism. Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz, often formed in association with subalkaline basaltic rocks. Its appearance is recreated in the resin, while Scribo draws on its symbolism as an 'elixir of long life' to give the color a meaning beyond decoration.

Piuma means 'feather' in Italian. The oval cross-section has two flat facets, and the cap, barrel, knob, and nib holder are handcrafted in resin with gold-finished metal components and clip. An ebonite feed supplies the Scribo 18k gold nib; the pen accepts cartridges or a converter for bottled ink and closes with a screw-on cap.

Made in Italy in a limited production of 219 fountain pens for this color, Ametista comes in a natural leather and cotton case. It measures 144.5 mm capped, has a barrel width of 15.6 mm, and weighs 30 g with the cap.

Questions & Answers

Is the Ametista body made from amethyst?

No. The cap and barrel are handcrafted in resin that recreates the violet appearance of amethyst. The gemstone provides the color and symbolism, while gold PVD trim completes the pen's construction.

What does amethyst symbolize in this edition?

Scribo takes the stone's association with an 'elixir of long life' as part of the design's symbolism. That idea is expressed through the violet, stone-inspired resin and golden details; it explains the theme of the finish.

What are the filling options?

The pen accepts ink cartridges, or a converter can be used for bottled ink.

Scribo Piuma Ametista

Iguana had the pen in stock and it arrived two days after ordering. If your choice is not in stock, always check the likely delivery date to avoid disappointment. For me, the experience was hassle-free and I would certainly buy from Iguana again. As for the pen....

I had an issue with the nib 'skipping' due to the tines converging quite severely towards the tip. I gently eased these apart, and everything was fine - EXTREMELY fine, in fact, because this pen delivers the finest nib width I have ever encountered; and yet, it remains such a smooth writer. Astonishing!

Also, the two flattened sections cut into the curved surface of the pen (which run its length, front and rear) are slightly misaligned when the cap is fully screwed down. Probably batch variation, with some examples being perfect and others a little less so.

And then there's the clip: serviceable but plain. The clip represents an opportunity to promote brand recognition (see Parker), so Scribo might have made a bit more of an effort.

All in all, a thumbs up and you should buy with confidence.
