Scribo La Dotta Fountain Pen Ninfea Limited Edition

Over 500 years ago Ulisse Aldrovandi, a leading figure in modern science who is still considered a reference for contemporary Italian naturalists, was born in Bologna.

Many flowers and plants studied and cataloged by Ulisse Aldrovandi can be seen today at the Botanical Garden of Bologna, which he himself founded in 1568 to provide students with a practical tool for cultivating and analyzing the plants treated during the lessons.

Nature never ceases to amaze us and every time we look at it we find a source of inspiration: the new fountain pens of La Dotta collection are dedicated to some of these flowers, Campanula Bononiensis and Ninfea (Water Lily).

Scribo La Dotta Ninfea features a grey/blue material with lilac streaks that reminds of the aquatic plants with their roots anchored in the earth at the bottom of ponds. It is limited to 219 pieces worldwide.
