Original Reproduction

Stipula hit all the right notes when they released this pocket fountain pen, which accepts short standard cartridges but is designed as an eyedropper-fill with large ink capacity relative to its small size. The cap is appointed with a chromed ring, which is threaded on the inside and features Stipula's leaf logo in sterling silver outside. While principally for decoration, this addition of the Stipula logo also prevents the pen from rolling. The company's logo can be seen again etched into the stainless steel Stipula nibs. The Stipula name and "Tutto fatto a Toscano," meaning "Made in Tuscany," are etched into each transparent or translucent barrel.

Old Is New

While revised versions of the Passaporto were certainly good, the original design was better for a number of reasons. Most importantly, better construction of the grip section and threading makes the original version strong enough for everyday carry, whereas later versions were prone to cracking along the feed. Another key difference is that threading on the barrel's end of this original reproduction allows for the cap to post securely, whereas the cap on later designs did not stay posted. This was a fairly serious issue for such a small pen, which is more comfortable for most hands when posted at a total length of 4.9 inches (12.5 cm).
