The Italian word “desiderio” (meaning “desire” or “wish”) conveys much more than simply wanting something. It originates from the Latin “desiderium,” which signifies a sense of absence or longing.
The Latin “desiderium” also derives from the word “sidus”, meaning “star”, and it was used to mean the longing for something we do not have, like the stars shining bright above that can’t be reached. This poetic background beholds the bond between desires, aspirations and dreams. Frequently perceived when looking up at the sky to find inspiration.
In honour of Fountain Pen Day 2024, we introduce a fountain pen crafted from a material that symbolises the sky, the stars, and the human drive towards the sublime, something exquisitely beautiful yet just out of reach. This pen is much more than a writing tool: it fuels the desire to express our emotions, capture fleeting moments, and immortalize ideas.
The fountain pen will cost €185 (or €151 for extra-EU based customers) but you will pay €166,50 (or €136,50 for extra-EU based customers) with the Fountain Pen Day coupon code.
